Mathematical Science B.S.

An Education that Combines Theory and Practice

Your Bachelor of Science in Mathematical Sciences from University of Houston-Clear Lake will expose you to a number of mathematical disciples, including statistics, operations research and more. You’ll gain mastery of both the classical foundations of mathematics and the modern concern with numerical issues spawned by computers and technology in courses like Number Theory, Topology, and Math Software Applications. All your courses provide hands-on research experience and access to state-of-the-art computer labs.

Your Career Opportunities are Greatly Enhanced

Many students pursue a career in education upon completing this degree, but you’ll have many other career options open to you in which your strong mathematical background will come into play. These include software engineer, actuary, computer systems analyst, computer programmer and mathematician. Women and minorities tend to be under-represented in careers that require a degree in mathematical sciences, so employers are particularly eager to seek qualified candidates to rectify those imbalances.

This degree also offers the option to specialize in actuarial science.
