[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Employers want problem solvers that they can train to learn the business. Math majors have demonstrated analytical and abstract problem solving skills. Given the sorry state of K-12 math education in the US math majors are going to become rarer as time goes on. Smart major in today’s unpredictable job market. [/quote] Mostly quant and AI. Niche market.[/quote] I think the PP means that employers hiring for non-math jobs like to see math majors because it’s an indicator of “analytical and abstract problem solving skills,” which can be valuable even when the work itself requires almost no actual math.[/quote] Yup. Like most liberal arts majors, math builds skills that are broadly applicable. [/quote] Bingo. I prefer math majors to business majors in my line of work for this reason.[/quote]
