Dear Friend,

What sort of careers are there in Mathematics and Statistics?

A quick glance at the 'Situations Vacant' section of Saturday’s Press is enough to see that there are few, if any, relevant jobs listed under MATHEMATICS or STATISTICS.

A more in-depth look will reveal that Mathematics and Statistics graduates are employed in many different areas.

Industry, commerce, government departments and teaching represent some of the more obvious ones.

Some jobs require specific mathematical or statistical skills while others, although not directly involving these skills, require the ability to think precisely and reason logically; these are abilities gained from your mathematical studies.

For a good idea of the kinds of careers that Mathematics or Statistics can lead to, visit the American Mathematical Society's Early Career Profiles website.

Generally, business, industry and government want people who have a broad background and interest in a variety of mathematical areas, computation and science.

Therefore you need to take papers that will expand your knowledge of applications of Mathematics and Statistics.

The most directly applicable papers would be in Accounting, Biology, Computer Science, Economics, Engineering, Management, and Physics.

In particular, there are very good job opportunities in financial mathematics and in computing combined with Mathematics.

Employers in both private and government sectors are increasingly seeking top graduates from a general field, sometimes not specifying any particular discipline at all.

They want bright people whom they will train. Also, the need for people who have a working knowledge of Statistics has burgeoned in recent years.

Over the last few years, the following job vacancies have been advertised locally for graduates in Mathematics or Statistics, or for people with expertise in these areas.

Many of these jobs require competence in using software packages such as SAS. Familiarity with spreadsheets, such as Excel, and data bases are also useful.

Most jobs also require strong oral and written communication skills, well developed interpersonal skills, and the ability to work independently as well as in a team.

Common Openings for the Position at various company are:-

• Analyst - Regional & Housing
• Analysts - National and Enterprise Accounts
• Analysts - Payments, Trade
• Economic Statistician
• Mathematical Statisticians
• Analyst - Maori Statistics Unit
• Economic Statistician/Analyst

All the Best

Information about NET? how can i prepare for NET exam?

Dear Friend,

* You does not really have any openings in the software sector as it completely deals with a different profile.

* But i can suggest you to enter any Business Process Outsourcing as an executive, where in you initial salary would start from around 15,000 per month.

* Best wishes :-)

Can you suggest companies that hire M.Sc in mathematics for campus placement?

Many colleges have taken b.sc maths students to companies by campus interview.why it's impossible?

Which type of company wants msc mathematics and computing students

Hi,
Please find my answer below.

You can do IT job but you need to do software course(Java,.Net).Then you need to do some software project experience.Then you can get a job in a software company but now days company are preferring B Tech,MCA or MSC(IT) because they are easily getting highly educated candidate from market.

Idiots like you should just shut your mouths. Do you even know the relationship between Mathematics and Computer science? When there are great programmers who have not even completed their graduation, what makes you think that a person with master's degree in mathematics cannot be in the software field?

Secondly, what makes you think that everyone is after a big fat salary? Is that all matters to everyone? Could not this querent be genuinely interested in programming?

After M.Sc. mathematics for getting a job in IT sector software testing is good or not?
