The Applied Mathematics program at the University of Pittsburgh provides students with a strong foundation in mathematical principles and their real-world applications. This major equips you with the analytical and problem-solving skills necessary to tackle complex challenges in various scientific and technical fields. You will gain expertise in core areas such as calculus, linear algebra, numerical analysis, and differential equations, preparing you for advanced study or immediate employment in data-driven industries.
Georgetown University offers two Bachelor's degrees in Mathematics: the A.B. and the B.S. The A.B. in Mathematics is suitable for students planning further study or careers outside of mathematics, such as in medicine, law, business, finance, journalism, or government service. The B.S. in Mathematics is designed for students intending to pursue graduate studies or careers directly within the field of mathematics. Students interested in majoring in mathematics are encouraged to take 'Introduction to Proof and Problem Solving' (MATH-2800) early in their academic careers to better understand the demands of higher mathematics.
