　　数学科学学院1981年获基础数学、概率论与数理统计博士学位授予权，1986年获应用数学博士学位授予权。1988年，基础数学、概率论与数理统计被评为国家重点学科。1990年建立了北京师范大学第一个博士后流动站。1996年，数学学科成为国家211工程重点建设的学科。1997年成为国家基础科学人才培养基金基地。1998年获数学一级学科博士学位授予权。2001年概率论方向被评为国家自然科学基金创新群体。2005年进入“985工程”科技创新基础建设平台。2007年数学被评为一级学科国家重点学科。2008年数学与应用数学专业师范教育方向获第一批高等学校特色专业建设点。2009年教育部数学与复杂系统重点实验室挂牌，分析类课程教学团队被评为国家级优秀教学团队，调和分析与流形的几何方向被评为教育部创新团队。2017年在高校第4轮数学一级学科评估中排名A类。2017年9月，数学学科进入世界一流建设学科名单。目前数学学科在多种国际学科排名中位列前100名，比如美国USNEWS全球最佳大学世界最佳数学学科排名中，2018/2017/2016分别排名第45/30/29名；2007年以来ESI国际学科排名一直保持前1%，2018/2017/2016三年分别排名第77/79/87名。

　　103年来，数学科学学院已毕业全日制本科生8687人(不含辅仁大学数学系毕业生)，已授予博士学位476人，硕士学位1956人，研究生班毕业209人。据不完全统计，在博士毕业生中:当选为中科院院士2人和第三世界科学院院士1人，获全国高校教学名师奖2人，入选万人计划教学名师1人，任教育部长江学者特聘教授3人，中国科学院百人计划1人，获国家杰出青年基金6人，获国家自然科学奖4人，获国家科技进步奖3人，入选新世纪百千万人才工程国家级人选2人，入选全国百篇优秀博士学位论文2篇。

　　The School of Mathematical Sciences (SMS) at Beijing Normal University (BNU) is renowned for its outstanding research in pure and applied mathematics. It began to enroll students as early as 1915 and was a pioneer in the establishment of mathematics in modern China.

        SMS researchers have achieved notable results in algebra, analysis, geometry, differential equations, probability, scientific computing, mathematical biology and mathematical education. One extraordinary example is the research group for probability theory led by Professor mu-fa  chen, the first Innovative Research Group of mathematics funded by the National Natural Science Foundation of China (2002-2010, three stages in nine years). This group has been called “a school” in five reviews by mathematicians abroad. Among its members, the most famous are Zenghu Li and Fengyu Wang, both of whom are Chang Jiang Scholars, China's most prestigious academic honor. Their works are often cited, with their methods or concepts often referred to as “Chen's coupling and distance method”, “Wang's Harnack inequality”, “Dawson-Li stochastic differential equation”. In the study of virtual knots, Dr. Zhiyun Cheng, a young faculty member, has introduced the concept of chord index by extending the notion of chord parity from Z2 to all integers. As a result, several new index type invariants have been defined in recent years. This method has been named “Cheng coloring” by Louis Kauffman, a leading expert and the founding editor of the Journal of Knot Theory and Its Ramifications.

　　At present, the SMS has a faculty of 81 members: two academicians of the Chinese Academy of Science (one of whom is also an academician of the Third World Academy of Sciences); one key speaker at the International Congress of Mathematics (ICM); three Chang Jiang Scholars; four winners of the National Outstanding Youth Fund of China; one highly cited scholar selected by Elsevier in 2014-2018; two Fellows of the American Mathematical Society; and one Fellow of the Institute of Mathematical Statistics in America. Faculty members sever on as many as sixty editorial boards of various academic journals and book series.

　　The BNU School of Mathematics is now among the top 100 in many international ratings and ranks 45th/30th /29th on the US News Best Global Universities list in 2018/2017/2016. Since 2007, it has been in the top 1% as rated by Essential Science Indicator (ESI) International Academic Rankings, ranking 77th /79th /87th in 2018/2017/2016.

　　The SMS has comprehensive undergraduate/graduate programs and puts a premium on the overall capacity in research, teaching, application and management. Guaranteed a good knowledge of both basic mathematics and its newest developments, students are enabled to be creative in research and competent in teaching. It boasts many brilliant graduate students, such as Mu-fa Chen, an academician of the Chinese Academy of Science and of the Third World Academy of Science; Shouzheng Tang, an academician of the Chinese Academy of Science; Runze Li, chief editor of The Annals of Statistics, a noted journal in statistics; Yun Liu, the ex-vice CEO of Google, now Chief Business Officer of Qihoo 360. By now, there have been as many as 476 students awarded Ph.D. degrees and 1956 have earned MA degrees. At least 156 alumni are leading teachers in middle schools, and twelve Ph.D. graduates were the winners of the Humboldt Research Fellowship.
