Degree Options You can choose to work in research or
use your skills in a more hands-on way. If you think you want to go to Graduate
School for Engineering or another field, earning your Bachelor’s degree in mathematics can give you a solid educational background that trains your mind to think in a very logical, scientific way – effectively preparing you for complicated Graduate work.

We Use Math
The most common question students ask math teachers at every level is…
When will I use math? The video describes the importance of
mathematics and many rewarding career opportunities available to students who study mathematics.
