- Mathematician (PhD, academia)
Typical pay: $62,000–$110,000 early-career (BLS, 2024 mathematicians median $121,680)
A Mathematics major covers calculus, linear algebra, abstract algebra, real and complex analysis, topology, differential equations, and an applied or pure track. Most BS programs require a senior research thesis. BS programs often allow specialization in Applied Math, Pure Math, Statistics, Actuarial Science, or Mathematical Computing.
Math graduates work in actuarial science (one of the highest-paid bachelor's pathways), finance, software engineering, data science, operations research, cryptography, and academia. Math pairs naturally with Computer Science, Economics, or Physics for double majors.
