History
Our Department of Mathematics was established in 2003 within the Faculty of Arts and Sciences at Istanbul Ticaret University and began its educational activities in Turkish. The department admitted its first students in 2004 at the Üsküdar Campus and graduated its first cohort in 2008. In 2013, thanks to the investment made by our founding foundation, the department was relocated to the Sütlüce Campus, where it continues to provide education today.

Between 2014 and 2018, the department temporarily suspended student admissions, resuming enrollment in 2019 under the Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences. Since its foundation, our department has continued to develop with the contributions of many distinguished mathematicians, awarding approximately 350 bachelor’s degrees to date.

As of 2025, the Department of Mathematics has 2 professors, 1 associate professor, 3 assistant professors, and 1 research assistant. All courses are delivered with great care by this competent academic staff, supported when necessary by visiting lecturers.

Our curriculum covers algebra, analysis, geometry, probability/statistics, and applied mathematics. Through flexible elective courses, as well as double major and minor opportunities, students can benefit from an interdisciplinary education.

Students gain early exposure to research culture through seminars, guest lectures, project work, exchange programs, and industry collaborations, enabling them to pursue careers in academia, finance, data science, software, and education.

Regular seminars and workshops strengthen the sense of academic community. Graduates stand out with their analytical thinking, problem-solving abilities, and interdisciplinary communication skills.
Qualification Awarded
Students who successfully complete this program are awarded the Bachelor of Science (BSc) degree in Mathematics.
Admission Requirements
To study in the Mathematics Bachelor’s Program at Istanbul Ticaret University, candidates must be placed in the program via the Higher Education Institutions Exam (YKS) administered by ÖSYM with the quantitative (Sayısal) score type, and must not be registered in another formal higher education program at the time of enrollment. International applicants are evaluated in accordance with Istanbul Ticaret University’s Regulation on Admission and Registration of International Students to Associate and Undergraduate Programs. The medium of instruction is 100% Turkish, and there is no English preparatory year. Horizontal and vertical transfers are carried out under YÖK regulations and the University’s relevant directives.
Higher Grade Transition
Graduates of this program may apply for admission to graduate (master’s and doctoral) programs for further study.
Graduation Requirements
Students who have completed all compulsory and elective courses, practical training, and internships required for graduation, and who have fulfilled the credit load with a minimum GPA of 2.00, are eligible to receive a bachelor's degree from their respective program faculty.
Occupational Profiles of Graduates
Our graduates enter professional life with up-to-date mathematical knowledge and skills; proficiency in software and computational tools used in mathematics; an entrepreneurial mindset; self-confidence; and strong teamwork abilities. Equipped with a solid theoretical foundation and well-developed mathematical reasoning, they apply their competencies effectively across a wide range of fields, including banking and finance, insurance and actuarial services, education, information technologies, data science and software, as well as industry and the broader services sector.
Assessment and Grading
In the Department of Mathematics, a letter grade system is used for the evaluation of student achievement. Each letter grade has a coefficient on the 4.00 scale and an equivalent on the 100-point scale. AA (4.00, 91–100) indicates excellent, BA (3.75, 81–90) very good, BB (3.50, 71–80) good, CB (3.00, 61–70) fair, CC (2.50, 51–60) sufficient, CD/CE (2.00, 41–50) pass, DD (1.50, 36–40) conditionally successful, DF (1.00, 31–35) conditional pass, F (0.00, 0–30) fail, and IA indicates non-attendance. According to the regulation, students with a cumulative grade point average (CGPA) of 2.00 and above are considered successful. In addition, several special letter grades are used: Tr (transfer credit), BS (pass), BZ (fail) – for non-credit courses, ND (non-degree course), NP (absence from final exam), I (incomplete), IA (non-attendance), R (repeated course), X (thesis/project in progress), W (withdrawal), L (on leave), and T (exempt). These grades define the student’s academic status and indicate whether or not they are included in the CGPA calculation.
