The Faculty of Applied Mathematics and Informatics is the successor of the Center for Applied Mathematics at Technical University of Sofia. Its origins can be traced back to the Department of Advanced Mathematics, which later turns into the Center for Applied Mathematics and the Institute of Applied Mathematics and Informatics.

 

Today, the Faculty of Applied Mathematics and Informatics is one of the main faculties at Technical University of Sofia and it has the following departments:

The faculty members of the Faculty of Applied Mathematics and Informatics prepare highly qualified experts in Applied Mathematics and Informatics, and teach Mathematics, across all faculties of TU-Sofia, in Bulgarian, English, German, and French.

The year 1970, at the so-called Building B, marks the beginning of specialized training for engineers with an interest in mathematics – with the establishment of the Center for Applied Mathematics.

Graduates of this training are hundreds of talented professionals – today leading educators, researchers, and executives in academic, financial, and industrial organizations in Bulgaria and abroad.

In 1999, building on the experience gained from Building B, a separate program is created – Applied Mathematics. In 2013, it becomes Applied Mathematics and Informatics.

Today, students are studying to obtain their Bachelor’s of Mathematics and Master’s of Mathematics degrees, while developing skills in analysis, modeling, and application of modern information technologies in industrial, technical, and economic processes.
