• Mathematics graduates from UC Davis have found careers in operations research, systems analysis, computing, actuarial work, insurance, financial services and education. Others have entered graduate study in mathematics or in such other fields as law, engineering, and economics.
  • Freshmen: Students will begin their study with basic preparatory mathematics courses such as calculus (if not completed in high school), linear algebra, as well as computer science and engineering and physical sciences, economics or statistics course.
  • At the upper-division level, students will plan their coursework with the help of a faculty adviser. The applied mathematics major also requires courses outside of the department in the scientific area of students’ choice.
