数学理学学士-应用数学

数学的研究是由于其广泛的适用性和内在的美。数学理论通常是源于物理和生物科学，工程，经济学，金融和社会科学中出现的问题。应用程序经常使用为完全不同的目的而创建的数学。威廉和玛丽的数学课程允许学生根据自己的兴趣和职业目标设计专业，并为学生做好学业后的就业准备以及进一步学习数学科学和相关学科的准备。在主要–标准集中，应用数学集中和大学预科数学教学集中有3个集中。学习选择包括应用数学和纯数学，运筹学，统计学和小学或中学水平的教学。学生还可以设计精算科学和工业数学职业，经济学，商业和社会科学等领域的跨学科工作或研究
The study of mathematics is motivated by its wide applicability and its intrinsic beauty. Mathematical theories often grow out of problems that appear in the physical and biological sciences, engineering, economics, finance and the social sciences. The mathematics program at William and Mary allows students to design a major based on their own interests and career goals and prepares students for post-baccalaureate employment and for further study of mathematical sciences and related disciplines. There are three concentrations within the major - the Standard Concentration, the Applied Mathematics Concentration and the Pre-College Mathematics Teaching Concentration. Study options include applied and pure mathematics, operations research, statistics, and teaching at the elementary or secondary level. Students can also design elective programs needed for careers in actuarial science and industrial mathematics, for interdisciplinary work in fields such as economics, business and social sciences, or for graduate studies.<br><br>Information about the mathematics major, career choices and appropriate courses of study is available from the department's academic advisors and the Office of Career Services as well as informally from the mathematics faculty.
