As a e-revolution becomes more established, new tools
are required for handling the emerging challenges of
the information age. Information Mathematics refers to
the use of advanced mathematical tools and techniques
which provide the principle methods needed for facing
the new tasks.
Information Math is expected to take an increasingly
more significant role in future developments,
complementing advances in IT. In today's rapidly
changing information age, many employers in the most
dynamic and well-paid industries have massive demand
for graduates with a combination of strong
mathematical skills and IT knowledge.
