Why Study Math?

 

Do you enjoy solving logical puzzles and coming up with creative solutions to real-world problems? Mathematics could be a great choice of major for you. Studying math helps you develop analytical, pattern recognition, and critical thinking skills. An education in mathematics indicates to prospective employers that you can do any job that calls for analysis, critical thinking, and problem-solving. These skills are highly valued by employers as well as graduate and professional schools.

Highline College does not offer a specific degree in math; however, the Associate in Arts DTA will help you transfer to a 4-year program where you can major in math.
