This workshop which is fully funded by the International Center for Pure and Applied                            Mathematics (CIMPA) is the first of its kind in Palestine, and took a long time of planning. In the course of the workshop, which will take place from 18-27 August; the European guest professors will be lecturing the graduate students in different mathematical fields.

This workshop which was organised by Prof. Naji Qatanani and Prof. Pierre Nicodeme will form a significant foundation for the students’ knowledge in the vast mathematical fields, and broaden their horizons.

Professor Maher Natsheh, Acting President of An-Najah, stressed the importance of An-Najah hosting such international events that are very beneficial for Palestinian universities, and help students obtain their higher education in Mathematics.
