Mathematics applies to everything it's sort of the language of how we understand the world I think what attracts a lot of people to UTS is our reputation for that outward facing view of mathematics and its place in the world and how together develop the skills which not just prepare people for employment but prepare people to make the kind of impacts to make the sort of breakthroughs with these problems that the world needs one of the greatest thing about the UTS Bachelor of mathematical science is that we showcase a lot of our own research and incorporate that into our teaching and learning and that give the students uh opportunity to see how the technical skills can be applied um in practice I like the fact that my professors have real world uh experiences as they can give you a more comprehensive understanding about this subjects you're learning I would say definitely challenge yourself if you have a passion and there are many opportunities out there the demand for mathematic grad is very high so I would say if you think you can do it have a try.
