文学士-数学

从会计到动物学，无论何时需要量化和分析，都可以应用数学或其紧密盟友统计学。数学提供了理解我们许多知识的符号和定量方面的语言和手段，因此许多学生将数学研究与统计学，计算机科学和/或信息科学，物理科学（例如地质，化学或物理）结合起来），应用科学（工程，测量），生物科学，社会科学（教育，心理学），商业（经济，金融）或人文科学（语言学，哲学）。而且，除了它的实用性外，许多学生仅仅因为喜欢它而选择数学，因为它是一门具有浓厚文化底蕴的学科，囊括了从古希腊几何学到混沌理论的最新发展的大部分科学发现历史。
We use mathematics for practical things like organising the arrival of materials on a building site in order to reduce storage; encrypting and decrypting internet messages; modelling blood flow through a damaged heart; and predicting the break-up of ice floes.<br>These are all mathematics in action – mathematics making a real difference in the world where we live. Mathematics looks at the distribution of prime numbers, the properties of geometric figures, how dependent variables change, and what happens when you add up infinitely many terms.<br>You build a solid foundation for analysing and understanding the mass of quantitative data that is available these days. You develop problem solving and organisational skills that are highly sought after by employers. You learn to think both logically and creatively. You discover an amazingly varied and profoundly rich science that has an intrinsic beauty. You get your mind around some of the ancient problems that have fascinated humans for centuries.
