History<\/span><\/h3>\n

\"\"Mathematics at Institut Teknologi Bandung\u00a0was established in 1948, as a part of the Faculteit van Exacte Wetenschap of the\u00a0Technische Hogeschool (TH). The Faculty has undergone a few changes: it was renamed Faculteit the Wiskunde en Natuur Wetenschap, then Fakultas Ilmu Pasti dan Alam (FIPIA) as a part of the Universitas Indonesia,\u00a0and eventually Fakultas Matematika dan Pengetahuan Alam (FMIPA) that was integrated to the Institut Teknologi Bandung in 1959.<\/p>\n

Mathematics\u00a0ITB’s\u00a0early mission was simply to provide training for candidates of mathematics teachers. As it\u00a0grew, the\u00a0mission also expanded. The master program was started in 1979 as one of the first three graduate programs within the Institut Teknologi Bandung, and the first of its kind in Indonesia. The doctoral program was followed to be initiated\u00a0in 1997 and until today remains as one of the two mathematics doctoral programs in Indonesia.<\/p>\n

The program in Actuarial Science saw its first light in the sixties. In the eighties, an Associate Program in Actuarial Science was opened in collaboration with Jiwasraya State Insurance. This program then\u00a0evolved as\u00a0a master program in Actuarial Science, founded in\u00a01998.<\/p>\n

In line with its early mission, Mathematics ITB\u00a0has been committed to the development of mathematics teachers in Indonesia through various programs such as training, internship, and workshop. This effort was formalized in 2009\u00a0by opening the Master Program in Mathematics for Teaching.<\/p>\n

Currently,\u00a0Mathematics ITB\u00a0has 71 academic staff\u00a0and student body of 705 in 6 degree programs.\u00a0However, the students throughout Institut Teknologi Bandung, who take various mathematics courses offered by Mathematics ITB, numbered around 8,500 annually.<\/p>\n

Vision and Mission\"\"<\/span><\/h3>\n

Institut Teknologi Bandung was founded on March 2, 1959. As Indonesia\u2019s oldest science and engineering institution of high learning, ITB plays a significant role in developing civilization and culture, both at home and abroad, through its vision as being an outstanding, distinguished, independent, and internationally recognized university that leads changes toward welfare improvement of the Indonesian nation and the world. The dynamics of the institution is driven by its mission: to\u00a0innovate, share, and apply science, technology, art and humanity and to produce excellent human resources for better Indonesia and the world.<\/span><\/p>\n

As a part of ITB, Facultas Matematika dan Ilmu Pengetahuan Alam\u00a0(FMIPA) has in line vision and mission. The vision of FMIPA is to become a leading faculty, pioneering the advancement of mathematics and sciences, and contributing to the national prosperity. Its missions are:<\/span><\/p>\n

    \n
  • \n

    conducting high quality education in mathematics and sciences to produce graduate with strong characters and global competitiveness,<\/span><\/p>\n<\/li>\n

  • \n

    conducting high quality and cutting edge research in mathematics and sciences, and<\/span><\/p>\n<\/li>\n

  • \n

    conducting public services and community empowerment through faculty expertise for nation welfare.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    In line with the vision and mission of ITB and FMIPA, the objectives of the Undergraduate Program in Mathematics (UPM) is to yield graduates who are able to develop their mathematical power and potential, to expand their mathematical interests; to manifest their leadership and innovativeness in mathematics or related fields; and to acquire good attitude and characteristics needed for advanced studies or\u00a0career advancement.<\/p>\n

    The objectives of the Master\u00a0Program in Mathematics (MPM) is a continuation of\u00a0those\u00a0of the UPM, which is\u00a0to yield graduates who are able to develop their mathematical power and potential; to expand their mathematical interests; to develop mathematics or to solve mathematical related problems in other\u00a0fields; and to acquire good attitude and characteristics needed for advanced studies or\u00a0career advancement in various professions which need maturity in mathematics.\u00a0This objective highlight the position of MPM as an intermediate program between UPM and the Doctoral Program in Mathematics (DPM).<\/p>\n

    The DPM, as the highest level of degree\u00a0in mathematics, has objectives\u00a0to yield graduates who\u00a0own high\u00a0mathematical power and\u00a0are prepared\u00a0to develop\u00a0mathematics or to solve mathematical related problems in other\u00a0fields;\u00a0are able to\u00a0lead their research groups and build\u00a0network to expand their expertise; and\u00a0acquire good attitude and characteristics as role models and\u00a0pioneer\u00a0in developing civil society.<\/p>\n

    The Undergraduate Program in Actuarial Science (UPAS)\u00a0has an objective to\u00a0progress in their careers by applying the principle of actuarial science and obtaining recognition as an Actuary\u00a0.\u00a0The UPAS alumni are expected to have sufficient knowledge and insight in the field of mathematics with relatively deep understanding in the field of mathematics relating to actuarial and finance, and applying it to solving problems.<\/p>\n

    The Master Program in Actuarial Science (MPAS)\u00a0has an objective to yield graduates who are not only\u00a0knowledgeable\u00a0in actuarial sciences but also in other fields where\u00a0mathematics\u00a0is applicable.\u00a0The MPAS alumni are expected to be able to interact with experts from other fields and cooperate in solving problems.<\/p>\n

    The objective of the Master Program in Mathematics for Teaching (MPMT)\u00a0is to develop\u00a0graduates’ professionalism as mathematics teachers, which\u00a0is achieved\u00a0by developing their mathematical competence.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
