The main mission of Faculty of Math is to educate the math talents equipped with profound basic and professional knowledge and creative ability, thus skillfully solving the scientific and technological problems arising in several sectors of national economy.

At the time of the foundation of Kim Il Sung University Math course used to be attached to Faculty of Science. Faculty of Science was renamed Faculty of Physics and Math and in 1960 Faculty of Math and Dynamics was derived from Faculty of Physics and Math. And Faculty of Math and Dynamics were divided into Faculty of Math and Faculty of Dynamics.

Faculty of Math consists of 9 departments(Department of Analytics, Department of Algebra, Department of Geometry, Department of Different Equation, Department of Probability and Mathematical Statistics, Department of Operational Research, Department of Numeral Mathematics, Department of Discrete Mathematics, Department of Higher Mathematics) and 2 laboratories(Laboratory of Information Mathematics, Applied Mathematics).

There are Mathematics Course, Numeral Science Course, Applied Mathematics Course, Modern Mathematics Course.

Typical subjects are "Mathematical Analytic", "Linear Algebra", "Analytic Geometry", "Topology", "Probability Theory", "Mathematical Statistics", "Digital Analytics", "Combination Mathematics", "Ordinary Differential Equation" and "Optimization Method".

There 160 teaching staff including 3 candidate academicians, 50 doctors. 70 of teaching staff have academic title of professor or associate professor.

About 1 100 students are studying at the faculty.
