Mathematical sciences include the areas of pure and applied mathematics, mathematics education, actuarial science, and statistics. Mathematics involves the study of problems in areas such as algebra, geometry, analysis, and logic and of problems arising in the real world. Mathematics, actuarial science and statistics are used in the physical sciences, engineering, the social, life, and management sciences. Mathematics education involves the training of prospective secondary teachers.
