Introduction

•        Mathematics is needed by people in all works of life, to try and sell, to figure costs, to calculate real interest rates on loans, to fill out income-tax forms, to prepare recipes and in a host of other ways.

Working Conditions

•        Mathematics is a study of form, structure, operations, and relationships. The work of Mathematicians and Statisticians is office based. The job is essentially a desk job with extensive use of the computer and follows a normal weekly schedule.

Personality

•        A career in any of the mathematical sciences, including mathematics, statistics, computer science, physical sciences, engineering and other mathematically oriented fields such as actuarial work or accounting requires an aptitude of mathematics. You should enjoy working with figures and solving problems, and should be able to think abstractly as well as concretely.

Operations Research - Introduction

•        Mathematics applies itself to operation research. Mathematical models are applied to management and operational data to solve problems.

•        Operations Research is generally a team work and ORA are required for a variety of work related issues.

Working Conditions
