im a computer science major, and i can tell you. you can learn most of that on your own lol. when i read the coding books sometimes im like, i can literally teach myself this in a better way for my brain to digest it.
I am a pure math major at Southern Oregon University which is really just a small state school in Oregon. I am not graduated yet, but I only have a few classes left. All I have left is my capstone, one computer science class (which is required for pure math majors at my school), and a few more general education requirements. The math curriculum at SOU involves a good mix of applied and theoretical math classes. You will have to take several applied math classes such as calculus, differential equations, and statistics, so you will have background in those fields. You will also have to take several theoretical math classes such as an intro to proofs class, abstract algebra, and analysis. I have taken every math class in the pure math major except for my capstone. I think part of choosing a college major is also about choosing what is interesting to you, so if you are interested in pursuing a pure math major, by all means do it. Proof writing was actually the part of the math major I struggled with, so it's good that I won't really need it for my career. SOU also offers a financial math major which combines math and business and also a math and computer science co-major that combines math and computer science. I still don't know how employable I will be as I have not searched for jobs after graduation yet.
Wow! I'm double majoring in Music Education and Psychology! So glad to know I'm not the only music major double majoring in something. It is really hard!!! Thanks for inspiring!!
Ooo I like this idea! But I also have so many other video ideas and videos planned! It might take me awhile to get to this, but I'll add it to the list
I wish you success in what you choose but after getting just enough credits in mathematics to make it a teachable I switched to economics. Your grades will go up and your confidence will sky rocket. If you want to do mathematics at the university level you should appreciate the... uhm difficulty... of infinite processes... as most of the curricula out there(no matter where you go) is full of it. I recommend to choose economics and pick a cubing as a hobby. But even if you can find a small out of success in mathematics in university... you will feel like it was nothing(mainly because it seems "not real"... i can expand if you like)... the rest of the world... will think you are some kind of god... (Strange but true at this time). All the best either way. Watch: Why We Cube(documentary) as this is what you want from your mathematics education but is missing... Good luck! From a high school mathematics teacher.
@@peterosudar1636 wow. thank you so much for this reply. its not often i get a response from someone who is into mathematics and can give this kind of information. I was just looking at jobs for people with masters and Phds and it looks like its really difficult depending on the location abd what kind of job i would want. But the same search for economics looks a little more open with all kinds of jobs for analyst. It seems like the better way to go in order to get me out of my nursing career.thank you
@@mikaelawaye2242 Education is the workflow that is craving warm passionate people. If you think you can pull that off then maybe you should keep that type of work in your mind. Everyone loves to learn! Which is why... maybe you should pick up "cubing" as a hobby... this pastime might help you see the connection between your workflows/lifeflows at the current moment. #cubinghelps
O well. There are not that many jobs in math. There are not that many jobs in music (witch is way I am only doing music on RUclips instead of studiyng it), but with both majors you should be able to get a desent job.
@Tiara I know it seems like proofs are only so useful... but you are wrong. When you really think about it, you already know this. I know that's not what you said... but it is what you mean. There is so much out there to prove... the question is: What is the matrix? ;) Good luck.
@@peterosudar1636 lol the first class I took at NU was called "Rubik's Cubes, Square Dancing & Mathematics" so maybe I will make a video on how to solve one
@@TiaraTanka Think about the notation that is used to write down algorithms for "cubes"... can you call that "mathematical notation" and if so... does it make it possible to consider a proof... Do proofs have to be number theoretically meaningful? Meaning "numbers" or can it be more like RFUR=R(FUR) Would proofs be useful for educational purposes... learning... maybe mathematical proofs are necessary for education to occur at all... maybe? ;)
My nephew majored in math. He lives with his parents. My sister has life insurance. She said that neither her husband or son can take care of themselves.

😂😂
Are you glad you chose your major, or would you pick another one if you could go back in time?
Math is my passion, computer sci is just for other reason. If I could go back in time..if I could go forward in time I will get a PhD in math later
Hahaha I love this response
Best Combination:
Major in Math and minor in CS and Statistics
Better major. Major in math and stats and minor in finance
I’m currently majoring in Computational Mathematics (basically a hybrid of Applied Math + CS) and am planning on minoring in Data Theory :)

Thanks for sharing!
What are your thoughts on all the diversity in Math and CS?
It’s definitely difficult being a math student! Loved your personal insights :)
Thank you!:)
As someone that did a Pure Nath Bachelor's and Master's, you're right!
Wow! I'm double majoring in Music Education and Psychology! So glad to know I'm not the only music major double majoring in something. It is really hard!!! Thanks for inspiring!!
💕💜💕
@@TiaraTanka Could you possibly make a video about double majoring and how you had to balance everything? If you ever get a chance!
Ooo I like this idea! But I also have so many other video ideas and videos planned! It might take me awhile to get to this, but I'll add it to the list
@@TiaraTanka Aww yea I understand I think it can help a LOT of people!!!
Finally did it! Sorry for the wait: Double Major Survival Kit ruclips.net/video/wLiZjBlh0cY/видео.html
very helpful. Im trying to decide between math and economics. This helps
mikaela waye Yay! Glad it was helpful:)

thank you i love how you added the survey to the video
Thank you!:)
My cousin Erin was a Math major at SUNY Geneseo and played softball she loved it

Luuk Swinkels Hopefully!🤞
Love the video. Your a real one
Aww thank you!!❤️
I am thinking of BA maths , what are your thoughts?
Tbh I was thinking of going to Geneseo for Math for a little bit but me and my cousin at the same college would not be a good sight
don't worry about statistics, be an outlier!
Lol
its maths

Good luck.
Make a video on learning to solve a "cube" or 3x3 aka Rubik's cube.
Guarantee you get closer to the answer...
@@peterosudar1636 lol the first class I took at NU was called "Rubik's Cubes, Square Dancing & Mathematics" so maybe I will make a video on how to solve one
I think we'll have to agree to disagree on the usefulness of proofs
@@TiaraTanka Think about the notation that is used to write down algorithms for "cubes"... can you call that "mathematical notation" and if so... does it make it possible to consider a proof...

They make math majors this cute at northwestern ???? Not at my school! But on the video, I feel you! How was real analysis? Lol
Hahaha thank you! It’s notorious
Tiara Tanka right! I was so proud of that C. Lol. Grad school?
@@Superpaul205 lol not for me
Tiara Tanka why not?? Shoot me an email! Miller_paul4@columbusstate.edu
Did u get a job yet
Yes
@@TiaraTanka what your job
I’m a data scientist now. (My first job after college was economic consulting)
@@TiaraTanka can a person of average intelligent earn a math degree
Ha I don’t know what average intelligence is. I think patience and tenacity are probably more important
lmao, it was fun though at least.
