Mathematics is a multifaceted subject of great beauty and application. The study of math explores some of the deepest questions and puzzles that have ever been encountered and equips the student with a universal language used to study quantities and relationships in all fields. Through the study of mathematics, the student develops both the ability to think logically and abstractly as well as the problem-solving and computational skills necessary for success in any field of study. A major in mathematics transfers to a four-year university where students have the opportunity to complete a Bachelor鈥檚 Degree in Biology, Chemistry, Computer Science, Economics, Engineering Mathematics, Physics, disciplines in Physical Sciences, and Statistics. Career Options: Actuary, Appraiser, Assessor, Auditor, Biometrician, Budget Analyst, Casualty Rater, Computer Programmer, Controller, Demographer, Doctor, Econometrician, Engineering Analyst, Epidemiologist, Financial Analyst, Investment Analyst, Lawyer, Management Scientist, Mathematician, Operations Researcher, Public Opinion Analyst, Statistician, Surveyor, Systems Analyst, Teacher, and Urban Planner.
