The demand for graduates majoring in mathematics has increased significantly both at home and abroad. In particular, according to the latest statistics, among the top ten majors with the largest number of graduates in demand in Beijing, Mathematics and Applied Mathematics ranks at the forefront. Most of the most popular professional actuaries in the United States are mathematics majors. Let’s take a look at the career fields that graduates of this major can engage in in the future, as well as salary and other employment prospects for mathematics majors.
1. IT industry employees: taking into account professional and career development needs
Representative occupation: programmer
Salary situation: most people will be engaged in programmer work salary The level difference is huge. The monthly income of junior programmers is generally around 2,000 yuan, and at the supervisor level, the monthly income can reach 5,000 to 6,000 yuan.
Employment analysis: Mathematics and applied mathematics majors are basic majors and are the "mother major" of other related majors. Graduates of this major have innate advantages if they want to "switch careers" into careers such as scientific research data analysis, software development, and three-dimensional animation production. "In terms of improving the speed and efficiency of a software, which requires new ideas and methods, mathematics masters have stronger innovative abilities than ordinary computer majors," said an engineer from a well-known IT company. A sample survey of 230 successful people in the IT industry showed that 200 of them were those who relied on mathematics majors or related majors to make career choices.
Professor Wang Xuan, an academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, told college students at the opening ceremony of Peking University Founder School of Software Technology: To become a qualified software talent, one needs to have "solid mathematical skills" and "rigorous logical thinking ability" . And rigorous logical thinking ability comes from a deep and solid foundation in mathematics. It can be seen that mathematics and applied mathematics majors are the basis for engaging in other related majors.
2. Business personnel: majors have advantages and good career prospects
Representative profession: actuary
As an actuary, you not only need to have a solid knowledge of Mathematics foundation, the ability to skillfully use modern mathematical methods and data to analyze and judge future changing trends, and also need to have a solid economic theory foundation and a thorough understanding of law, taxation systems, financial accounting, and investment, especially Have keen insight into risks and the ability to handle various controllable risks. The journey from an ordinary actuary to an actuary is long and arduous, and generally takes 5-7 years.
Salary level: The current average annual salary abroad is US$100,000, and the current monthly salary in China is more than 10,000 yuan. Four years later, as people's understanding of insurance increases, the rise of the insurance industry will inevitably require more actuaries.
Employment analysis: Financial mathematicians are already one of the most sought-after talents on Wall Street. The simplest example is that the person with the highest status and income in an insurance company may be the chief actuary. In the United States, famous universities such as the University of Chicago, University of California at Berkeley, Stanford University, Carnegie Mellon University and New York University have established degree or professional certificate education related to financial mathematics. Despite this, many of the most popular actuaries in the United States are mathematics majors.
In addition to actuaries, since economics also introduces mathematical modeling, mathematical talents who understand economic principles are also widely accepted by employers, including international economics and trade, business administration, chemicals and pharmaceuticals, Communication engineering, architectural design, etc. are all inseparable from relevant mathematical expertise.
3. Teachers: Great demand, stable salary
Employment analysis: According to the forecast of the Ministry of Education, in the next five years, the shortage of high school teachers in my country will reach 1.16 million, including mathematics and Chinese. Teachers in basic subjects such as these are in greatest demand. There is even a mathematics "teacher shortage" in many cities and counties in Guangdong Province.
Statistical analysis of the talent market in 37 large and medium-sized cities across the country shows that mathematics teachers are in high demand. Expanding teacher channels and recruiting teachers from the society have become important measures in the reform of the education personnel system. This undoubtedly provides a lot of room for development for graduates who apply for mathematics and applied mathematics majors in comprehensive colleges and universities to find employment.
In addition, the United States has been experiencing a severe shortage of teachers, especially mathematics teachers, in recent years. Take the city of Houston as an example. In recent years, it has recruited a group of mathematics teachers from cities such as Dalian, China, and helped their entire families stay in the United States.
The gradual rise of the tutoring industry has also provided an important employment channel for graduates majoring in mathematics and applied mathematics. Since mathematics tutors have relatively high requirements for professional knowledge and teaching and coaching skills, which are difficult for parents to do or have no time to take into account, hiring a mathematics tutor has become an inevitable choice for many families. A survey by tutoring experts on the tutoring market in 106 large and medium-sized cities across the country shows that math tutors account for an absolute majority of 83% of all tutors. According to relevant expert predictions, in the next 5-8 years, mathematics tutoring will become a specialized profession and become very popular. Regarding tutoring as a profession, there will definitely be a lot to do.
Google Vice President Kai-Fu Lee reminded college students: "The knowledge system of most science and engineering majors is based on the cornerstone of mathematics. Learning mathematical knowledge can cultivate and train people's thinking ability."
p>When choosing a mathematics major, it is best to have plans for further study. It will be easier to break through if you first lay a solid foundation in mathematics at the undergraduate level and then seek development in other directions. There is no doubt that the best choice for postgraduate majors is finance, computer and other majors.
