Mathematics BS
Mathematics is the incredible language that allows us to understand patterns and develop abstractions. It's the science of numbers, structure, shape, and change.
And math isn't just for mathematicians—it's used in so many fields, including business, education, physics, biology, and computer science. Mathematicians know how to think analytically and critically, and how to formulate and solve problems. This means that if you pursue a career in mathematics, you'll have numerous job opportunities waiting for you. If you combine a BS in mathematics with a teaching credential, you could inspire the next generation as a high school math teacher.
