Pure Mathematics

Overview

Often called the foundation of all sciences, pure, or theoretical mathematics, deals with the science of structure, order, measurements and relationships of objects or groups of objects. Students who like to problem-solve are ideally suited to study mathematics. This degree can lead to rewarding careers in education and finance, as well as a growing array of job opportunities in technology and engineering. Students in theoretical mathematics gain experience understanding large, complex systems. These experiences can then be translated into numerous career opportunities.
