In the meantime, the following 4 textbooks have been prepared for publication:

Rudolf Scitovski, Kristian Sabo, Matematički praktikum
Ninoslav Truhar, Uvod u računarstvo
Darko Fischer, Programiranje
I. Aganović, K. Veselić, Matematičke metode i modeli

 

Since the textbooks and course materials are completely prepared by assistants, associates or students and published in a fairly small number of copies in a digital print house, it is possible to have such a low selling price for students. Some of the textbooks are financially supported by other faculties of the University of Osijek since they are in use at these institutions as well.

In addition to textbooks, Department of Mathematics also published two journals:

Mathematical Communications is published by the Department of Mathematics in co-operation with the Osijek Mathematical Society. This internationally recognised scientific journal publishes original scientific papers, invited survey articles and lectures held at the Mathematical Colloquium in Osijek. The journal was initiated by Dr. Hrvoje Kraljević in 1996. The total number of contributed papers has increased lately, as well as the number of published papers written by scientists from the whole world. Papers published in our journal are frequently cited in other significant international journals. The Editorial Board consisting of prominent mathematicians from Croatia and abroad who are somehow related to Osijek especially contribute to that fact. Reviews are international, and authors and reviewers are contacted mostly through the Internet. A rather large number of manuscripts (about 50%) is rejected for publication due to negative reviews. Mathematical Communications is cited in Current Mathematical Publications, Mathematical Review, MathSci, Zentralblatt für Mathematik / Mathematics Abstracts, MATH on STN International, CompactMath, INSPEC, Urlich's, Current Index to Statistics. Mathematical Communications is sent to more than 100 addresses all over the world where it is exchanged with similar journals published by universities, national associations or academies of science. Since 1998 Mathematical Communications has been financially supported by the Ministry of Science and Technology of the Republic of Croatia. More details referring to the journal Mathematical Communications can be seen at these pages.

Osječki matematički list (former Osječka matematička škola) is a journal initiated in 2000 by the Department of Mathematics, J.J.Strossmayer University of Osijek and the Osijek Mathematical Society. It is intended for pupils and teachers in primary and secondary as well as students of mathematics. It is published twice a year. The journal publishes predominantly papers from the fields of mathematics and computer science, but also topics from other fields that are somehow related to the main profile of the journal. In addition to classical papers and regular columns such as Zadaci i rješenja, Glavolomke and Povijesna rubrika, there are other contributions such as entrance examination exercises with solutions, information from the Department of Mathematics, University of Osijek, Osijek Mathematical Society, translations of texts from Mitteilungen der Deutschen Mathematiker-Vereinigung, etc. The aim of the journal Osječka matematička škola is to raise the level of communication in the field of mathematics and computer science in primary and secondary schools, predominantly in the Slavonia and Baranya County, but our sights have not come down. We also expect that in this way pupils and teachers will get to know each other better, which will in turn significantly raise the level of knowledge of mathematics, computer science and related fields. By publishing the journal Osječka matematička škola Department of Mathematics got a chance for its own promotion and direct influence on raising the quality of teaching mathematics and computer science in primary and secondary schools, which will hopefully raise interest of better pupils in studying at the Department of Mathematics in Osijek. The public is still not completely aware of the existence of the Department of Mathematics in Osijek and its function. By publishing this journal, the Osijek Mathematical Society has its own official medium through which it will be possible to gather its members and inform them about events within and around the Society. All members of the Osijek Mathematical Society receive the journal Osječki matematički list free of charge. It is distributed in Croatia. More details referring to the journal Osječki matematički list can be seen at these pages.

3. Department of Mathematics also published the following conference proceedings: 6th, 7th, 8th, 9th and 10th International Conference on Operational Research.
