Housed within the Old Building (in the University Square, practically right in the center of the city), together with the Faculties of History, Chemistry, Geography, Letters and the Department of Romance Languages and Literatures.

In 1864, when the University of Bucharest was founded, one of the three faculties was The Faculty of naturals, mathematical and physical sciences (which becamed The Faculty of Sciences),which in 1866 was split up into a department of physical-mathematical sciences and another one of physical-natural sciences.

A turning point in the faculty evolution is marked by the coming, as professors, of the first doctors in mathematics from Paris, in this order: Spiru Haret, David Emmanuel, Constantin Gogu and Nicolae Coculescu.

Prominent figures of the faculty in the first four decades of the XX century include the geometer Gheorghe Titeica and the analysts Dimitrie Pompeiu and Traian Lalescu,
