Many government agencies hire math majors for research and development jobs.
The National Security Agency is the nation's largest employer of math majors. As an NSA mathematician, you may help to develop the quantitative circuitry involved in an electronic surveillance system, or you may specialize in statistical analysis, spotting crime trends or other statistical patterns that help the agency use its resources more effectively. The armed forces, the Department of Commerce, the Department of Defense and NASA also have jobs for mathematicians. In these government agencies, you may analyze the mathematical aspects of launching communication satellites, the distribution costs of businesses or the aerodynamic characteristics of objects. You also may work in a national or private research laboratory, or teach high school or university mathematics.
