Applied mathematicians are employed in a number of areas, such as quantitative finance, material science, computer science, epidemiology, genetics, city planning, and climate science; many other fields will also be open to you upon completion of this degree. Consider a career as a climatologist, financial or business analyst, programmer, or actuary (a risk analyst for an insurance company). With further education, research or university teaching positions are also possible. Be it in industry, technology, business, or education, math can take you anywhere.
