Employers are generally supportive and may give students study time during working hours, pay exam fees, and award raises for each exam passed. However, most employers prefer to hire people who have started the series of examinations on their own and have already passed at least two or three.<br>Students interested in specializing in mathematics and intending to do either graduate work in Mathematics or work in business or industry will be interested in this degree. The Mathematics Department Degree Program prepares students for employment in the private or public sector, graduate school, and scientific research. Studying mathematics naturally develops quantitative thinking and analytic problem solving, talents with universal application. Demand will always be high for individuals with these universal talents to solve society's diverse and complex problems.<br>The Department of Mathematical and Statistical Sciences Degree Program prepares students for employment in the private or public sector, graduate school, and scientific research.
