calculus), discrete math (like combinatorics) and more! Some careers that require advanced knowledge in this area include actuarial science, finance and engineering.<\/p><p><strong>Statistics<\/strong>: As its name suggests, statistics involves collecting data from experiments or surveys to make population conclusions based on sample sizes. A degree in this subject can lead you down paths such as data analysis or consulting work for businesses needing help interpreting their data sets.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-a7a6a91 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"a7a6a91\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;content_width&quot;:&quot;boxed&quot;}\" data-core-v316-plus=\"true\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-f39e838 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"f39e838\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;content_width&quot;:&quot;full&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-1e6e97b exad-sticky-section-no exad-glass-effect-no elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"1e6e97b\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Physics\n\n\n\n<\/h2>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-1cf18fe exad-sticky-section-no exad-glass-effect-no elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"1cf18fe\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Physics is the study of matter and energy.
