Text A. Mathematicians

(1) Mathematicians use advanced mathematics to develop and understand mathematical principles, analyze data, and solve real-world problems. Applied mathematicians use theories and techniques, such as mathematical modeling, to solve practical problems. These mathematicians typically work with individuals in other occupations to solve these problems. Theoretical mathematicians do research to identify unexplained issues in mathematics and resolve them. They are primarily concerned with exploring new areas and relationships of mathematical theories to increase knowledge and understanding about the field.

(2) In this job you will need to be as accurate as possible. You will need to be able to think clearly and pay attention to detail. You will also need to formulate a problem in precise terms, identifying the key issues.

(3) Mathematicians typically need a master’s degree in mathematics. However, there are some positions available for those with a bachelor's degree. However, most people with a degree in mathematics or who develop mathematical theories and models are not formally known as mathematicians. Instead, they work in related fields and professions. In the computer systems design and related services industries, they may be known as computer programmers or systems analysts. In finance, they may be known as quantitative analysts, financial analysts, or statisticians. Computer and information research scientists, physicists and astronomers, economists, actuaries, operations research analysts, and many other occupations also use mathematics extensively.

(4) Applied mathematicians may work with chemists and materials scientists and chemical engineers to analyze the effectiveness of new drugs. Other applied mathematicians may work with industrial designers to study the aerodynamic characteristics of new automobiles.

(5) Mathematicians use mathematical techniques and models to analyze large amounts of data. They must be precise and accurate in their analysis. Mathematicians must interact with and propose solutions to people who may not have extensive knowledge of mathematics. Mathematicians use statistics, calculus, and linear algebra to develop their models and analyses. Mathematicians must devise new solutions to problems encountered by scientists or engineers.

(6) Theoretical mathematicians, who work in education institutions, usually have a mix of teaching and research responsibilities. Some may do individual research or collaborate with other professors or mathematicians. Mathematicians have to apply mathematical theories and techniques to the solution of practical problems in business, engineering, or the sciences, assemble sets of assumptions and explore the consequences of each set, conduct research to extend mathematical knowledge in traditional areas, such as algebra, geometry, probability, and logic, develop new principles, and new relationships between existing mathematical principles, to advance mathematical science.

(7) Research mathematicians are likely to start on salaries in the region of £25,000 - £35,000, depending on background and specialist subjects. With experience, salaries for mathematicians can range from £30,000 to £45,000. At top senior levels, mathematicians can earn £50,000 - £70,000 depending on the sector.
