Math applies to lots of fields outside of the sciences, such as finance and business. I love the broad range it gives me.

Opportunities for students
Being able to help underrepresented students like myself; [...] that has been the greatest thing ever. I’m really glad for all the leadership opportunities that I’ve had.
Deborah RodriguezA community feel
While math can be done individually, classes are very collaborative. When you work on homework with other people, you can learn how they think and then add that to your own toolbox.
Delanna DoSupporting your success
The professors have been extremely helpful in talking with me and allowing me to ask questions on anything I’m uncertain about or to get extra help, or even on ways to take their topics and apply them to other things I’ve been learning. They have really made me feel like I belong in this major and it’s the one for me.
