Careers A strong background in mathematics is excellent preparation for a wide variety of careers. Students who wish to study mathematics in college should take high school courses in algebra, geometry, trigonometry, and calculus, if available. These courses also are useful for study in architecture, engineering, and physics. In college, the basic courses for a major in mathematics include advanced calculus, differential equations, abstract algebra, numerical analysis, number theory, theories of real and complex variables, probability, and statistics. Courses in logic and computer programming also are useful in preparing for many careers. Mathematicians teach at all levels. High school mathematics teachers must have at least a bachelor's degree in mathematics. Many mathematicians with a doctor's degree teach at colleges and universities. Large numbers of mathematicians work in business, government, or industry. Those with a bachelor's degree may find work as accountants, computer operators, and statisticians. Many people who have earned a master's or doctor's degree in mathematics conduct research for the communications, energy, manufacturing, or transportation industries. Mathematicians also work in the computer industry as programmers or as systems analysts who determine the most efficient use of a computer in any given situation. Insurance companies employ mathematicians as actuaries to calculate risks and help design policies. Contributor: Joseph W.
