The Department is responsible for the basic engineering science curriculum education for students in Preparatory year of College and also for students in all engineering branches, mathematical and Physics sciences are considered as a natural basis for study in the Faculty of engineering according to international standards (NARS) that mentioned clearly, the engineering curriculum education should contain from 23% to 29% mathematical courses of its contents, the curriculum includes mathematics, physics, mechanics, engineering drawing, projection, chemistry, computer, English language, and history of engineering science.

The Department includes selected faculty members and their assistants, who are graduates from various engineering departments with academic preparation for Mathematics or physics as well as acquired in College of engineering expertise in engineering sciences and therefore serves as a bridge connecting the Faculty of engineering and mathematical, physical and chemical theories for various engineering sciences.

The Faculty members of Engineering mathematics and physics department has a dual academic preparation through the use of several additional taught courses in physics, mathematics, and mechanical engineering for teaching assistances to complete postgraduate studies for a master's degree and doctorate in engineering mathematics, physics, and mechanics, to contribute to researches that are considered as link between engineering applications and theoretical foundations that can interpret and indicate ways to develop, the research areas include:

Algebra, Fuzzy Algebra, Analytic Geometry, Numerical analysis, Non-linear Partial Differential Equations and its applications, Stochastic Partial Differential Equations, Probabilities and statistics, Linear and Non-linear Programming, Optimization, Fractional Fourier Analysis, Fractional Calculus, wavelets and filter banks, Artificial Neural Networks.

Fluid Mechanics, Magnetic fluid mechanics, Continuum Mechanics, Structural Dynamics, Dynamics of multiple objects, Heat transfer.

Applied Physics, Atomic Physics, Nuclear Physics, Plasma, Semiconductors and Android science, Solar cells.

Industrial chemistry.

There are many laboratories that support the educational process like:
1. Preparatory year physics laboratory.
2. First-year physics laboratory.
3. Engineering mechanics laboratory.
4. Engineering Chemistry Laboratory.
