Mathematics-based careers span many fields, including accountants, researchers, bankers, statisticians, math teachers, and economists. Each of these professionals has math at the core of their work and must use their skills every day to do their jobs.

Are you interested in animating the next Pixar movie? How about making data tell a story? Maybe you want to plot trajectories into space or design giant skyscrapers? All of these feats can be achieved with a foundation in mathematics!
