Traditional undergraduate mathematics programs have been oriented to pure mathematics or towards applications in physics or engineering.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #808080\">The Mathematics and Statistics Department of the University of North Carolina at Charlotte is now offering a Bachelor Degree in Mathematics for Business. The Mathematics for Business program is a solid and practical applied mathematics program that tightens the focus on business applications to better prepare students for a successful career path in the areas of insurance, finance, banking, and economics.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #808080\">The Mathematics for Business program has a <span style=\"color: #0000ff\"><a style=\"color: #0000ff\" href=\"https:\/\/catalog.uncc.edu\/preview_program.php?catoid=20&amp;poid=4285\">B.A.<\/a> <\/span>and a <span style=\"color: #0000ff\"><a style=\"color: #0000ff\" href=\"https:\/\/catalog.uncc.edu\/preview_program.php?catoid=20&amp;poid=4230\">B.S.<\/a> <\/span>degree track. The B.S. program offers concentrations in Actuarial Science, Operations Research, and Mathematics Economic\/Finance. Graduates of the proposed program in Mathematics for Business will be a valuable asset to the community. They will bring expertise in Mathematics, Statistics, and Operations Research along with excellent analytic skills to businesses, financial institutions, insurance firms, and governments of the area. The B.S. degree program when partnered with a program in Economics or Finance is an excellent stepping stone to graduate work in the areas of Economics, Finance, or Mathematical Finance.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #808080\">Students in this program are also eligible to receive an Undergraduate Certificate in Actuarial Studies. <a style=\"color: #808080\" href=\"https:\/\/catalog.uncc.edu\/preview_program.php?catoid=22&amp;poid=5468&amp;returnto=1743\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">More information<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p>&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;<\/p>\n\n\n<!-- wp:list -->\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><!-- wp:list-item -->\n<li><strong><span style=\"color: #993300\"><\/span><\/strong><mark style=\"background-color: #f6f3bc;color:#005035\" class=\"has-inline-color\"> Annual Actuarial Science Day and Career Fair, Friday September 26, 2025:<\/mark> Hosted by the Actuarial Science &amp; Math for Business Programs and the Actuarial Science Club.
