Mathematics Program
Mathematics is one of the most fundamental sciences upon which many other academic disciplines are built. Applied mathematicians develop new methods and techniques or use those already established to solve practical problems in the areas of business, economics, government, and engineering and the physical, life, and social sciences. Some job titles include actuary, operations researcher, statistician, quality control engineer, and consultant. Teaching middle school and high school mathematics is also a common career.
Scholarship Opportunity
Morningside College was recently awarded a grant from the NSF to give scholarships to math, computer science, physics, and engineering physics majors, and establish the Pathways to Student Success in the Sciences program. For more information, visit the Pathways website.
