Applied Mathematics Option
Graduates with training in applied mathematics are employed in business, industry, and government. They would probably work as part of a team and would often need to communicate mathematical ideas to persons trained in other subjects. In many instances, they would need to formulate problems for solution on a computer and interpret the answers. Thus, besides a fundamental knowledge of mathematics, a knowledge of what computers can do is essential. This option is also good preparation for graduate study in applied mathematics, computer science, statistics, and engineering.

Actuarial Science Option
The Actuarial Science Option for mathematics majors will provide students with the strong background in mathematics, statistics, and economics necessary to analyze financial risks. This option aims to prepare students for the first three actuarial examinations administered by the professional actuarial organizations. The secondary area of concentration for students in this option is fulfilled by required courses in business and economics.
Actuarial science deals with the analysis of financial consequences of risk. Actuaries are highly trained professionals, well versed in mathematical, statistical, and economic techniques that enable them to evaluate financial risk of uncertain future events, especially those pertaining to health care, insurance, and pension plans. Actuaries answer risk-related questions by developing, implementing, and interpreting sophisticated mathematical models.
