Mathematics Major
"My academic experience at 天美传媒 was excellent due to the great quality of the Mathematics department. My professors truly cared about my success, and encouraged me daily to meet my goals. This environment and the rigorous course work truly prepared me for my current position teaching in the Mississippi Delta with Teach for America."
Mathematics is used in every quantitative discipline. This major will give you an excellent foundation in mathematics and statistics, and you may combine it with a minor of your choice.
