The Faculty of Mathematics and Computer Science (FMCS) plays a pivotal role in teaching and providing academic expertise for most mathematics courses at the University of Science, VNUHCM. Each year, FMCS is responsible for training nearly 4,000 freshmen, equipping them with the knowledge needed for a variety of academic programs. Most disciplines at the University require students to complete a minimum of 9 credits in mathematics (equivalent to three courses). Notably, the Information Technology program mandates at least 28 compulsory mathematics credits.
For the undergraduate level, FMCS admits approximately 350 students annually. These students follow a structured curriculum that integrates in-depth theoretical knowledge with practical applications. In addition to the core courseworks, FMCS organizes several academic activities, scientific seminars, and competitions to enhance students' research and practical skills. Students also have opportunities to engage in scientific projects and internships at enterprises and technology corporations, allowing them to gain hands-on experience and expand their career prospects upon graduation.
For the graduate level, FMCS oversees academic management and provides specialized training in Mathematics, Applied Mathematics, Computer Science, and Data Science. The diverse range of graduate programs enables students to flexibly choose between research-oriented and applied pathways based on their professional aspirations. Furthermore, FMCS collaborates with the France-Vietnam Applied Mathematics Master's Program, a partnership with multiple French universities, where English is the primary language of instruction.
Beyond undergraduate and graduate education, several faculty members also contribute to teaching at the High School for the Gifted, affiliated with Vietnam National University, Ho Chi Minh City. Through this involvement, FMCS plays an essential role in nurturing young talents with exceptional aptitude in Mathematics.
