While we will spend some time addressing the question "what jobs can you get with a mathematics major?" We will approach the question from the angle of what is the importance of math for jobs. Or rather, what qualities does studying mathematics develop that makes math majors attractive to job recruiters. Throughout the video, I will bring up various mathematics major career areas while going over two qualities that make mathematics majors a valuable resource for businesses hiring in the job market.
Although it is possible to get a job in any of the fields that are mentioned in this video with a math degree alone, it never hurts to strategize! Math builds a foundation for working in many of these areas, but you can usually become a better candidate for a job in those areas by adding some area-specific experience or knowledge too.
I made this video because the value of a mathematics major in the professional world was always something that I struggled with as a kid. It's not that I didn't enjoy math when I was little, I LOVED IT. However, I was always told when I was little that having a solid understanding of mathematics would foreshadow one's success in any one of several careers later on in life, but I didn't really understand why or how mathematics was valuable and I didn't really care because I enjoyed it so much. That was until I had to critically think about it for myself as I went through the job search process and this thought exercise continued on till when I actually started working. So I thought I would share how I view the value of a math major to the professional world today.

My biggest fear as math student right now is ending up as a high school teacher. I realized this after graduating but the majority of students dont even pay attention to you and I feel like I would be wasting my time. I know some of you love teaching but that's the reality. I would love to be a researcher or an actuary.

@leant6487 3 года назад

I don’t believe myself super moral but being an actuary would feel pretty bad and make me guilty. Especially if you end up in a particularly bad agency.

@rahahassan1181 3 года назад

That's exactly the same fear that I have, I don want to end up as a high school teacher as well. That's just not my passion but sometimes I just feel like I might end up there

@daisyg509 3 года назад

That's why I decided to go straight to becoming a professor of math and refuse to ever become a HS teacher permanently. You're very right about that. At least at the college level you'll run into a lot more students that DO care. Especially in classes like calculus. At least that's what I've seen.

@Infinity17728 3 года назад

Same here. I’m math major and I’m absolutely terrified of becoming an educator.

@Mrverybusinessman 3 года назад

I don't think that's a legitimate concern for anyone, unless everyone in this chain is talking about stopping at a bachelor. In which case, yes a high school teacher is a very possible outcome/trap if that's where you end your studies. A different major would be a wise choice (like physics) if you are early enough in your bachelor's.

I'd recommend taking a look at the Tala (music) wikipedia page which talks about a measure system of Carnatic and Hindustani music (or Indian Classical music in general) and is often used in drumming in those styles of music to produce complex rhythms.

My fear is that with a math degree (which is what I want to do) is that you become a jack-of-all-trade master-of-nothing person who can't beat out any people who actually specialize with a specific major in college

@CHALKND 4 года назад

Sure it is easy to feel that way when studying something so abstract and broadly applicable, but id take being a jack of all trades any day 😅, the full original “jack of all trades” quote was used as a compliment and in full is “A jack of all trades is a master of none, but oftentimes better than a master of one”🤓😁

@architsrivastava203 4 года назад

I think it's usually the other way round, more so in research. Stand-alone disciplines are getting saturated, be it basic sciences or engineering; being the master-of-one isn't going to be that beneficial because all the low hanging fruits in almost every stand-alone field have already been plucked. Research is becoming increasingly interdisciplinary and, I can't even begin to stress how invaluable a maths(or even a physics) degree can be in preparing someone for this cross-disciplinary paradigm. These subjects train the mind to be comfortable with rigor, which has a huge potential to uncover counterintuitive insights in other fields that are missed by the people in those fields.

@theboombody 3 года назад

Really tough getting a math major as the primary credential scenario past the HR departments in my opinion. Nothing against them, but I think they're trained to look for very specific things. Businessmen hire HR departments to look for people who generate money, not people who seek truth in natural phenomena. Of course that's assuming businessmen actually know that math is mostly about proving things. Most of the people I know are not in any kind of scientific field and they have no idea that math is mostly about proofs. They think math majors spend most of their time doing arithmetic in their head. And they figure why hire a person like that when calculators exist?

I took eight mechanical engineering classes after getting my masters in math. Couldn't find work in math without teaching, so I tried engineering classes. Many in the class were weak at math and the math they used wasn't too intense in free body diagrams and stuff. I thought I'd get a mechanical technician job or something by now. I read about a new mechanical engineer that couldn't find work until he got trained in cnc machining. I guess you train until you die.

@CHALKND 4 года назад

You’re right, that is kinda the point of the video 😅. Math allows you to enter a whole slew of jobs across multiple industries and often times it’s the skills that you develop during a mathematics degree that allow for such a breadth of application in the workforce. You can do most entry level jobs that require a degree with a bachelors in math and some others just require a touch of background here or there in a given field.

@@CHALKND that’s technically incorrect you don’t “develop” those skills during a Math’s degree! As I recall you took 22 courses or something from your last video & only one of them involved R (theory of computation is pretty much useless in getting a job). So NO, one has to actually develop those skills outside the major be it coding, some other software BI/Tool, study finance/actuarial etc. Else it doesn’t work out.

@CHALKND 3 года назад

Thanks for the comment! I think we agree that the skills you have listed don’t come up in a strict theoretical math degree. In my comment above, I’m talking about skills that are related directly to mathematics (problem solving, argument construction, pattern recognition, generalizability and adaptability of known information/infrastructure, accounting for edge case scenarios, etc). They may not be what we immediately think of when thinking about skills but they are still skills and they do help when applying for jobs.

You should contact your career services department at your university to recommend job fairs and resume critiques if you haven't done that already. Sometimes that works and sometimes it doesn't. Unfortunately the best thing for landing a job is probably still networking. I got more job offers from going to church than I got anywhere else, and I had a BS in math too. But you will probably need to decide on whether you want to pursue engineering/construction, business/accounting, or computer science/programming. All those fields will probably hire math guys for entry level grunt work positions if you show a lot of interest, but you'll need more schooling in that specific discipline to move up the ladder for sure.

I just always find it sad when I see math majors or qualified engineers who worked really hard and had to study really complex subjects, only to become a software engineer. They usually end up doing no better than me, and oftentimes worst. Maybe because when I was little my dad told me to become a mechanical engineer, I decided I love tinkering with computers and pursued a path with the specific goal to be a software engineer. As a natural progression these days I spend most of my time on stuff such as robotic process automation, data science, machine learning - what all the cool kids seem to want to do... But I must say, I think I should have listened to my dad!

I must admit, that probably sounds like "the life" to any ordinary bum and freeloader and even though I was bring home about $1100/$1200 biweekly, I felt disgusted at my situation and instead I decided to go back to college and exercise my true potential. This was working as a front desk clerk for a Behavior Wellness facility in a Clinic a town away from where I live.

@CHALKND 4 года назад

I’m glad someone was paying attention! And I appreciate the feedback, mostly I say this for emphasis. 😅 Hopefully it’s clear that the exclusion of an element that is not in a set is just equal to the set itself. So {a}\{b} where “\” is the exclusion operator or the “set minus” is just equal to {a} (since b is not an element of {a} ) same as if we exclude 0 from the positive numbers that means that we take ℝ+ or whatever positive numbers you want for that matter and set minus {0} which as you’ve noted 0 is not in the set of positive numbers and thus we end up with the positive numbers that we started with. So the exclusion is not “undefined” as your comment makes it sound and we actually *can* exclude zero from the positive numbers. Does it do anything to the set of positive numbers? No it does not! But, the set operation is still defined 😁😉🤓

I think the video title should be changed to "What jobs do you QUALIFY for as a mathematics major". A math degree teaches you the conceptual foundations of all the fields mentioned in your video, but doesn't provide you the specific skills on any of them. You can't "get" any of the jobs mentioned, at least not directly after graduation. You would either have to double major in something else during undergrad, pursue higher education in those specific fields or develop those skills on your own time. This is the real blunder of a math degree: jack of all trades, master of none.

@theboombody 3 года назад

I fully agree. Math is wonderful for personal investment and development of thought. But it's really, really bad as a financial investment unless you know you're going to be a university professor for sure. And for me math changed so much from calculus to abstract algebra that by the time I got there I knew I did not want to be a university professor. I'm glad I got a math degree and it did get my foot in the door for an accounting job, but skipping it and getting a degree in accounting or engineering at the beginning would have made more financial sense.

…I just get a big BIG no from college graduates on math major…that majored…I’m not sure but they went to RPI I went to community college for fine arts but dropped out due to financial issues and I wanted to change my major to math. Thoughts?

Thank you brother! I’ve been trying to figure out how to use my BS in mathematics and BA in philosophy! It’s been pretty difficult trying to figure out what to do with them! Such how to apply them for a good job. Thanks for giving me the ideas!

It really wasn't clear what the difference between formulaic and conceptual is, but I took it as how people view mathematics and what mathematics actually is. 90% of people think math is all formulaic, but that's like saying biology is formulaic or business management is formulaic. Every single career domain has aspects of both. Mathematics can be much more creative and innovative and "conceptual" than people realize. Mathematicians don't just know how. They know WHY. And that is important to explain to employers who see your background as anything less.

@danielkrajnik3817 3 года назад

aren't logs handled automatically these days? or were you working on a solution to detect patterns in those logs?

@CHALKND 3 года назад

In my experience in this is true only sometimes. It depends on the application/service/etc I was working in web server administration for a hosting/cloud computing division of a company so much of my time was spent addressing/investigating problems and configuration issues in system architecture that arose between the hosted solution and the clients interfacing architecture. Much of the time that meant looking at log files; for internally developed software there were tools to parse logs but you would often have to look at a cluster of individual files around an occurrence and interpret the parsing to figure out what might be going wrong. It was a lot of educated guess work, especially with new integrations that didn’t have well developed logs or documentation for various architectural cases.

@andyiswonderful 3 года назад

What I take away from you video is that a person in college should major in one of those other fields, and minor in math. Math is a tool to an end, but is it removed from the pursuit itself.

@reos7496 3 года назад

Tbh all you need is just basic maths.

@CHALKND 3 года назад

In a way you are right. A lot of times that is all you will really use in an industry job outside of R&D, or software development. The goal of this video was more so to give out some ideas of types of jobs to look for if you have/are pursuing a mathematics degree. I often felt that the amount of time spent covering theory in my mathematics undergrad made me feel like there wasn't a real "job path" for math majors and that hit especially hard when I found out I wouldn't be able to afford grad school when I first applied. Through spending sometime in the corporate world and going through the job application process I found that I was just looking in the wrong places and that's what inspired this video.

@CHALKND 4 года назад

That’s unfortunate. Sometimes we choose the wrong path, but there are always other routes we can take.

@theboombody 3 года назад

Understand that. Just majoring in pure mathematics with no applied discipline unfortunately really limits your career path to teaching. I tried teaching after getting my bachelors and hated it so much I took grunt jobs for a while. Eventually I landed an accounting job and decided to go back to school for that. I'll never like accounting as much as math, but at least I feel less stuck now.
