In the rapid technologies advances there is a strong demand for the professional who could lead in the emerging disciplines. The need for improved development in high-end technology areas as well as in industrial research and development work, therefore, can hardly be over-emphasized. Thus, the importance of Natural Sciences, in general, and Mathematical Sciences, in particular, cannot be over looked in the present age of 21st century.

One of the main factors associated with this, is the use of IT based techniques in teaching and research in these disciplines. On the other hand Mathematical sciences, particularly, the subject of Mathematics is the backbone of new emerging Sciences including computer science, Information technology, Computer Engineering and Biotechnology.

At present, the Department of Mathematics at CIIT, Lahore Campus provides the facilities to teach the courses in Mathematics offered in various programs including Computer Science, Management Sciences, Electrical Engineering and Chemical Engineering.

In future the Department aims to pursue excellence in Mathematics by offering BS (Math) four years and MS leading to Ph.D programs through teaching and research by developing appropriate curricula and teaching practices, acquiring talented faculty members and providing an endowment conducive to teaching and learning of quantitative skills.

The Department endeavors to educate its students by providing them exposure to real-life problems, and including in them problem solving approaches. They are encouraged to explore, solve problems, break new grounds, and cultivate leadership qualities.
