high-demand field. There is more need of teachers in the near future. Teaching
is a good paid job. Some Maths teachers make a lot of money in giving
coaching or tuition to students.
Actuarial science: The knowledge of mathematics and statistics applied in the
finance and insurance field.
Operations Research: It is an interdisciplinary branch of mathematics that uses
advanced analytical methods such as mathematical modelling and mathematical
optimization to arrive at optimal solutions to complex decision-making problems.
The operation research analyst requires an advanced knowledge of
mathematics and better computer skills.
Computer sciences: The mathematicians with their training in logical and
precise thinking are highly prized in the field of computer sciences. The
applications of mathematics has increased in the field of computer
programming. Mathematics has direct applications in robotics and artificial
intelligence.
Biomathematics: Mathematical biology or biomathematics is an
interdisciplinary field. It models natural and biological processes using
mathematical techniques and tools. It has applications in cellular
neurobiology, epidemic modelling and population genetics.

Cryptography: It is the practice and study of hiding information.

Cryptography is considered to be a branch of both mathematics and
computer science. Cryptography has applications in the security of ATM
cards and computer passwords.

Finance: Mathematicians build models to predict the behaviour of

financial markets. Several schools offer Master's degrees in Financial
Mathematics. Mathematics has numerous applications in the field of
banking. The Chartered Accountant with knowledge of mathematics can
do wonders in his/her field.
