Mathematics and Digital Technologies
The “Department of Mathematics, Physics and Informatics” was established in 1995, following the foundation of Odlar Yurdu University.
From 1995 to 2017, the department was headed by Doctor of Physical and Mathematical Sciences, Professor Ahmad Abdulkarim oghlu Valiyev.
From 2017 to 2024, the department was led by Candidate of Physical and Mathematical Sciences, Professor Mubariz Balali oghlu Valiyev.
Since 2019, the department was divided into two units and continued its activity as the “Department of Mathematics and Informatics” and the “Department of IT Engineering and Technical Disciplines.”
In 2022, the “Department of Mathematics and Informatics” was renamed as the “Department of Mathematics, Informatics and Statistics.”
From 2024 to 2025, the departments of “Mathematics, Informatics and Statistics” and “IT Engineering and Technical Disciplines” were merged and renamed as the “Department of Mathematics and Digital Technologies.” The department was headed by Corresponding Member of ANAS, Doctor of Physical and Mathematical Sciences, Professor Bilal Telman oghlu Bilalov.
In 2026, the department was reorganized again into two parts and renamed as the “Department of Mathematics and Informatics.” Currently, it is headed by Candidate of Physical and Mathematical Sciences, Professor Mubariz Balali oghlu Valiyev.
The department employs a total of 19 staff members, including 2 professors, 5 associate professors, 2 PhD holders, 1 senior lecturer, and 9 lecturers. Additionally, 5 part-time lecturers are engaged in teaching activities.
The academic staff have published 1 textbook and 12 teaching manuals. A total of 88 scientific articles have been published, 25 of which appeared in journals indexed in Web of Science and Scopus. The number of curricula approved by the Ministry of Science and Education is 48. Some members of the department are engaged in joint research with Baku State University and the Institute of Mathematics of ANAS.
The expansion of applied fields of mathematics—beyond its traditional areas such as nuclear physics, mathematical physics, differential equations in mechanics, economics, chemistry, biology, geology, astronomy, and ecology—has led to continuous development in this domain. The department aims to develop students’ professional knowledge and skills by applying modern teaching methods focused on applied mathematics.
