数学系
数字在哪里变得生动
数学 is a language that allows you to abstract and solve the essence of problems in any discipline. Math trains the mind to think rigorously and carefully. It provides tools to untangle and process information in a problem. These are great skills to have in and out of 数学ematics!
The 数学系 at WWU is large enough to have faculty with expertise from a broad range of 数学ematical specialties but small enough for students to foster personal relationships with faculty and their fellow students. We have a long tradition of excellence in 数学ematics and teaching. The faculty consciously strive to excel in the classroom, employing a wide range of teaching methodologies and practices.
This is where you want to get your 数学 degree.

大学经历
What will your college experience look like as a 数学 major?
数学活动: From the annual spring sidewalk chalk theorem contest (pictured above) to Pi Day treats and contests, to departmental gatherings that help you get to know your classmates and your professors, our tight-knit department creates a fun and supportive atmosphere for learning.
数学协会: We actively sponsor our students for membership in the Mathematical Association of America. We also encourage engagement with national societies such as the American Mathematical Society, Association for Women in 数学, National Association of Mathematicians, and Society for Industrial and Applied 数学, providing valuable resources and networking opportunities.
Annual Scholarship for Proficiency in Financial 数学: This scholarship is designed to recognize and reward students for pursuing and passing professional financial credentialing examinations prior to graduation. 学生将获得2美元,000 scholarship for each professional financial credentialing examination they complete prior to their undergraduate graduation from WWU.

职业道路
What can your career path as a 数学 major look like?
A mind that is trained in 数学ematics will excel in numerous careers. 数学 is a critical component of many fields of research including climatology, 医学, 国家安全, 机器人, 动画, 运动数据, 和更多的. Some of our 数学 majors prepare for careers in actuarial science where they will assess risk at insurance or investment companies. Many 数学 majors prepare for careers in teaching or complete pre-professional programs for further study in 医学 or law. Others apply their analytical skills in related fields such as engineering, 业务, 或者计算机编程. And some students choose 数学 as a second major while they prepare for careers in music or visual arts.
美国.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics projects a 28% growth in 数学 occupations from 2020 to 2030. The American Mathematical Society references more helpful career information on their website.
