Profile of Master Program in Mathematics in the School of Mathematics and Statistics

School of Mathematics and Statistics Mathematics has been approved as a secondary discipline to offer master's degree program in the Applied Mathematics (2006) and Mathematics (2017). At present, it has 29 master supervisors, including 1 teacher of "National Hundred-Thousand-Ten Thousand Talents Program" , 2 experts with special government allowance, 6 provincial talents, and 78 full-time postgraduates. Based on the "International Island" of Hainan and aiming to serve the regional scientific and technological basic research and development, the program has formed a number of research directions such as graph theory, optimization, uncertainty theory, stochastic dynamical systems, algebra, machine learning and artificial intelligence as well as differential equations, covering the directions of applied mathematics, pure mathematics, operations research and cybernetics, and computational mathematics. The School of Mathematics and Statistics enrolls academic masters in the first discipline of Mathematics (0701) and doctoral students in the direction of Cryptomathematical Theory and Cryptography under the first discipline of Cyberspace Security (0839) in the School of Cryptography. For information about the supervisors, please click on "Supervisor's Profile" in the Postgraduate Education section of the School of Mathematics and Statistics.

At present, the discipline of mathematics has an academician workstation, which was established for Prof. Jianming Shi, academician of the Japanese Academy of Engineering, with introduction of 4 professors from the algebra direction of the Russian academician team, including two academicians of the Russian Academy of Sciences, and one Belarusian National Honorary Scientist. In the next five years, each of them will spend six months per year in Hainan University to guide the scientific research of the discipline of mathematics; Besides, it has signed an agreement on mutual cooperation with the Institute of Systems, Chinese Academy of Sciences; The Department of Mathematics of Hainan University became a co-founding unit of the Southeast Center for Tianyuan Mathematics; In 2020, it was approved to be the base of the Hainan talent teams; In 2021, it was approved to be the Laboratory of Statistical Computing of Hainan Province. The discipline of mathematics also seeks to expand its influence, hosting two international and domestic academic conferences in the past five years, reporting more than 20 times at important academic conferences at home and abroad, inviting domestic and foreign experts to give more than 90 lectures and reports. Our postgraduates participating in all domestic and international academic exchanges. In the past five years, the program has presided over 24 projects of the National Natural Science Foundation of China and 27 projects at provincial level, covering multiple majors of mathematics, with a scientific research fund of more than RMB 8 million; It has published more than 300 academic papers, of which more than 118 have been indexed by SCI and 27 by EI; and it has won first prize, second prize, and third prize of scientific and technological progress award many times as primary contributor in Hainan Province.

The postgraduate training program has been revised and improved several times for better talent cultivation. Recently, the School Degree Committee examined and approved the high-level integration of the talent training program by the demonstration of seven famous domestic mathematics experts, and realized connection with high-level talent cultivation plans, improved the bridge between increasing enrollment indicators and connecting talent cultivation plans. By formulating the evaluation methods for basic scholarships for postgraduates, the mechanism of postgraduate awards has been improved and the standard of postgraduate awards has been raised, with a coverage rate of 100%. In the past five years, it has published 73 major scientific research papers of postgraduates, including 29 SCI-indexed papers, 12 EI-indexed papers and 32 Chinese core journal papers. The enrollment rate for postgraduates is about 30%, and the proportion of excellent master's theses at the provincial level is about 20%. The employers are distributed in schools, government agencies, and high-tech enterprises, which have highly commented on the graduates.
