Introduction
The degree of Bachelor of Science in Mathematics equips Cambodian students with the skills and competencies necessary to contribute to the development of Cambodia as teachers, statisticians, scientific managers, actuaries, system analysts and other professionals.
Background
Following the devastation of the education system under the Khmer Rouge regime, the Royal University of Phnom Penh developed a degree in Mathematics designed to train large numbers of secondary school teachers to meet the needs of upper-high-schools in Cambodia. As the Cambodian economy developed in the late 1990s, RUPP recognised the need to change the degree's focus to better prepare Cambodian students for careers in business and industry. The introduction of a new course structure, including subjects from modern applied mathematics, has equipped students with the relevant mathematical skills and competencies for future careers in business, government, industry and the non-government sector.
Admission
Admission to the degree of Bachelor of Science (Mathematics) is administered by the Ministry of Education, Youth and Sport, based on sound results in the High School Certificate subjects of Mathematics and Physics.
Assessment
Students are assessed by regular formal and informal examinations throughout their degree.
Resources
The Hun Sen library stocks a large range of recently published advanced Mathematics textbooks in both English and French. To supplement this information, the Department of Mathematics has translated twenty important mathematical texts into Khmer, making them more accessible to students. A small computer laboratory with appropriate mathematical software is also available for students.
Curriculum
* Explanation: The code a(b-c) indicates the study load and number of credits. In this example: 'a'= number of credits, 'b' = number of lecture hours, and 'c' = number of tutorial or practical hours.
*Note: English language, run by ELSU, runs on a variable course code system, ENG001- ENG 412 depending on students' skill level.

Welcome to the Symposium on the History of Mathematics on The Number Zero
Date: 18-20 March 2019
Phnom Penh, Cambodia
The Symposium on the History of Mathematics on The Number Zero is organised by the Department of Mathematics, Royal University of Phnom Penh (RUPP) in collaboration with the Ministry of Education, Youth and Sport, and Ministry of Culture and Fine Arts.
Description
The symposium on the role of the numeral zero in the history of mathematics will bring together researchers, scientists and scholars working in the fields of history of mathematics and mathematics education with the following objectives:
gather certain specialists in history of mathematics to share and discuss the history of the numeral zero.
provide Cambodian mathematics educators with knowledge of history of mathematics and its evolution.
foster mathematics education in Cambodia, and establish networking nationally and globally.
document work presented during the symposium for public dissemination.
promote research of mathematics education in Cambodia.
