Math majors are primed to pursue careers in economics, finance, statistics, insurance, and teaching. Some students opt to combine the major with computer science, further broadening job prospects in the lucrative fields of software development and technology sectors. During your junior and senior years, you’ll enjoy exceptionally small classes and a broad array of electives designed to help pinpoint your areas of interest. You can major in either Pure Mathematics or Mathematics with Actuarial Concentration.
