Overview
Mathematics and Statistics graduates are widely employed in industry, commerce, government departments, and teaching, but job opportunities exist in many less obvious fields. Many jobs require specific mathematical or statistical skills while others require the ability to think precisely and reason logically – skills your mathematical studies will hone.
