Department of Mathematics : About
 
A recent "Jobs Rated Almanac" listed the top six jobs as (1) web site manager, (2) actuary, (3) computer systems analyst, (4) software engineer, (5) mathematician, and (6) computer programmer. Union University can prepare you for these careers and more - with degrees in computer science, digital media studies, and mathematics. Job placement in such high-demand careers has been excellent for Union graduates. Our programs also prepare you for further study in graduate programs, engineering, or professional schools in business, law and medicine.

A background in mathematics, computer science and statistics complements a solid Christ-centered liberal arts core to give Union graduates a lifetime career advantage. An education with an emphasis in the mathematical and computer sciences teaches students to think critically, solve problems creatively, organize information, handle technical language and notation, and to speak and write effectively. Many businesses today place a priority on these analytical and communication skills.

Union’s mathematics and computer science programs provide you with many benefits including:

  • Academically challenging and competitive programs
  • Committed Christian teaching faculty
  • A low 12:1 student to faculty ratio
  • Dedicated state-of-the-art computer labs
  • Mathematical software
