Since the world increasingly depends on science and technology, the study of mathematics becomes essential. Women and men trained in mathematics are employed in industry, teaching, and research at all levels. Students who study mathematics gain an excellent background for collaboration with professionals in other disciplines, such as economics, business, and criminal justice. Undergraduate mathematics also serves as an excellent basis for further studies in operations research, statistics, computer science, medicine, and law; in addition to mathematics itself. The mathematics minor program at Curry College provides the foundation for further studies in applied fields and also, prepares a liberally educated student for related fields in which strong quantitative and problem-solving skills are needed.
