Mathematics

Mathematics is more than mere numbers. Math gives you the skills and analytical ability to perform tasks both great and small—from sending a rocket into space to choosing a cell phone plan. Parse complex problems into small, more manageable pieces. Majoring in math can lead to lucrative careers in everything from economics and research to finance and engineering. But not all math is created equally. At STAC, you can choose from degrees in a variety of mathematical disciplines.
