The math major

Mathematics opens the doors to many promising career paths. CareerCast ranked mathematician as best job for 2014 based on four factors: environment, income, outlook, and stress. Statistician was ranked third and actuary was ranked fourth. A study by PayScale shows that the top 15 highest-earning college degrees have a common element: mathematics. Not only do many professions and majors (engineering, doctors, physics, nurses, computer science, actuarial science, etc.) require courses in mathematics, but the analytical and problem-solving skills students learn in mathematics can apply to all disciplines.

At Temple Math, there are several degree programs from which to choose: the Bachelor of Arts in Mathematics, the Bachelor of Science in Mathematics, the Bachelor of Science in Applied Mathematics, the Bachelor of Science with Teaching, and joint programs with Computer and Information Science, Economics, and Physics.

• The Bachelor of Arts in Mathematics provides a solid mathematical foundation and also allows for the most flexibility.


• The Bachelor of Science in Applied Mathematics focuses on mathematical and computational methods. In particular, this degree is suitable preparation for professions featuring sophisticated mathematical modeling and/or computational science.


• The Bachelor of Science in Mathematics provides an in-depth theoretical background focusing on the traditional core areas of mathematics. The traditional entry for preparation for graduate or professional schools.


• The Bachelor of Science in Mathematics with Teaching program is aimed at students interested in teaching mathematics at the high school level. This program combines a solid mathematical foundation with the pedagogical training necessary for success as a high school teacher. This program also satisfies Pennsylvania's teacher certification requirements.


• Five-year combined bachelor's and master's programs are also available.
