Mathematics permeates virtually every intellectual discipline. Carl Friedrich Gauss called mathematics the “queen of the sciences” and indeed, it forms an integral part of scientific thought and is a necessary component of contemporary advances in all scientific fields. It’s a great time to be a mathematician and a data scientist! The Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) 2022 reports the median salary for data scientists as $100,910 and $96,280 for mathematicians and statisticians. BLS also ranked data scientist #6 and statistician #9 on the list of fastest growing occupations between 2021-31. This means you can anticipate job security and a great salary by majoring in Mathematics and choosing any of our concentrations. The Mathematics major at the University of St. Francis exposes students to various undergraduate topics while teaching the analytical skills necessary to continue the lifelong learning and application of mathematics. Dedicated faculty members create learning opportunities where students can engage in research training workshops, undergraduate summer research, conferences, STEM related activities and events, organizing educational experiences for the community and more. Faculty members work closely with students to cultivate and nurture students’ personal interests, preparing them for fulfilling careers after graduation.
