After further study, most graduates majoring in applied mathematics enter universities and scientific research institutions at home and abroad to engage in advanced research, and their main directions are mathematics, computer, information science, finance and management science. In the future, I will directly enter research institutions and companies to engage in analysis and application.
All major comprehensive universities, some normal universities and universities of science and technology in China have set up mathematics departments, and most of them have set up mathematics majors. Mathematics majors in different schools have different development priorities. If the ambition is to develop in the direction of mathematics major, we should attach importance to the scientific research and teaching strength of this major in schools. Peking University, Tsinghua University, Beijing Normal University, Fudan University, etc.
Applied mathematics majors can take the postgraduate entrance examination in a wide range of directions, and economics, computers and software can all be considered.
Economics is easier to test, because the math test of economics is Math 4 (Math 3 and Math 4 merged this year).
Therefore, the mathematics level of applied mathematics major is enough to cope with the difficulty of postgraduate entrance examination, while many courses of economics major use mathematical principles and logical thinking, so people who study mathematics are easier to learn.
1. The employment situation should be linked to the school and major you took. You should count two aspects (economics and computer) that can be tested across majors. In fact, the employment situation is similar, that is, there are fewer high-end jobs and more low-end jobs. If your level is high, you are eager to get it. If the level is not good, it is natural for the same competitors to find jobs. If you are determined to take the exam, you must choose a good school and tutor, which is very helpful for employment.
The employment of graduate students majoring in mathematics is really the same as what you said, but the situation is different now. Many so-called actuaries and modelers are graduate students majoring in mathematics, not graduate students in economics. In fact, learning math well is very cheap. Changing majors is simple and wide. Specialized courses in economics are not very difficult. You don't have to be nervous, you can still work hard.
3. In the examination of civil servants, undergraduate students have an economic advantage, and master students have an advantage in mathematics and computers. You should know that one major is information and computing science, and the enrollment scale of civil servants with master's degree is very large. Actually, it's the math department ... don't worry about not finding a job.
Generally speaking, what to learn should be based on hobbies. You don't like to learn badly. If you don't learn well, the employment of these majors is not very difficult, but the conditions will not be very good. The difficulty of postgraduate entrance examination must be the biggest in economics, but the specialized courses in economics are really not difficult. Just work hard. But if you take the exam in a junk school, you might as well not take it. . .
Mathematics and applied mathematics are basic majors and "parent majors" of other related majors. Whether it is scientific research data analysis, software development, three-dimensional animation production or financial insurance, international economy and trade, business administration, chemical and pharmaceutical industry, communication engineering, architectural design, etc. , can not be separated from the relevant professional knowledge of mathematics. As the saying goes, "If you learn math and physics well, you are not afraid to travel all over the world". Since we have chosen, we should go all out to make a comprehensive breakthrough in mathematical thinking and spirit in all fields.
Two, mathematics and applied mathematics professional employment prospects analysis
Relevant analysis data show that for a long time to come, although the overall situation of employment in China's market presents a "demand-side market" with fierce competition, the employment demand will still be different according to the types and majors of schools. On the one hand, some technical majors are popular, on the other hand, basic majors, such as Chinese, mathematics and applied mathematics, are scarce. According to the forecast of the Ministry of Education, in the next five years, the gap of senior high school teachers in China will reach 1. 1.6 million, among which the demand for teachers in basic disciplines such as mathematics and Chinese is the greatest. There is even a shortage of math teachers in many cities and counties in Guangdong Province. The statistical analysis of the talent market in 37 large and medium-sized cities in China shows that math teachers are very popular. According to Education Digest Weekly, there will be 48,890 graduates in Beijing, among which mathematics and applied mathematics are among the top ten majors with the largest number of graduates. Shaanxi, as the bridgehead of China's western development, will have an increasing market demand for mathematics professionals. From the above data analysis, it is not difficult to see that the demand for mathematics talents is large and the employment prospects are promising. Moreover, it can be predicted that with the development of economy and society, there will be more and more demand for mathematics and applied mathematics professionals in the market, and the employment prospects will be broad.
A sample survey of 230 successful people in IT industry by relevant experts shows that 87% of them rely on mathematics or related majors to realize career re-selection. Because mathematics and applied mathematics are closely related to other related majors, there are many similar majors to choose from, so it is much easier to apply for this major than other majors, and it is much easier to re-choose a job and change careers, which is conducive to better employment in the future.
With the reform of education and personnel system and the full implementation of teacher appointment system, the source of teachers in ordinary middle schools is breaking the geographical boundaries of the industry. Broadening the channels for teachers and recruiting teachers for the society has become an important measure for the reform of the education and personnel system. This undoubtedly provides a great development space for applying for the employment of graduates majoring in mathematics and applied mathematics in comprehensive universities. At the same time, with the continuous updating of educational content and the increasing diversification and modernization of teaching methods, the requirements for mathematics teachers are not only reflected in the increase in quantity, but also in the improvement in quality. The traditional mode of training foreign teachers in normal universities can no longer meet the demand of modern education for compound talents. Comprehensive universities have unique advantages in subject resources in cultivating compound talents. Applying for mathematics and applied mathematics in comprehensive colleges is not only conducive to career choice in the future, but also conducive to personal development.
The gradual rise of family education also provides an important employment channel for graduates majoring in mathematics and applied mathematics. Because the math tutor requires higher professional knowledge and teaching guidance art, it is difficult for parents to operate or take care of it, so hiring a math tutor has become an inevitable choice for many families. According to the national 106 survey of tutors in large and medium-sized cities, mathematics tutors account for an absolute majority, reaching 83%. According to the prediction of relevant experts, in the next 5~8 years, math tutor will become a special profession and be welcomed. Taking tutoring as a profession is bound to be promising.
Three, mathematics and applied mathematics professional employment rate and employment prospects
Employment rate of graduates: 94.69%.
Tuition: 3400 -5500 yuan/year.
Analysis of popular disciplines: Mathematics is the foundation of all science and engineering disciplines. If you learn math well, the obstacles to scientific research will be much smaller. Many students think this is a long-term unpopular major. In fact, the situation is: pure mathematics may be like this, but after a few years in college, I came into contact with applied mathematics. Students who want to continue their postgraduate entrance examination and study abroad in the future may wish to start from here.
Candidate category: science and engineering.
