                    Career Paths                    

Mathematics is involved in every career as well as most aspects of life in general.   From the carpenter who needs to determine the correct amount of materials or what angle to construct a beam at, to the pilot who knows the load factor on her wings, as well as her rate of climb, descent, speed and direction, all these require a strong mathematical sense.  It is mathematics that supports the use of statistics to reach accurate conclusions in the fields of psychology and sociology, to name only two of many.  Engineering, medicine, accounting, software developing, economics, chemistry, geology, and business all rest on a foundation of math.  Truly, there are few vocations that do not require the kind of thinking that math develops.
