Ask HN: Job opportunities using applied mathematics
What job opportunities are there outside of academia that use applied mathematical modelling (optimisation, statistics, PDEs, designing a mathematical model for reality, etc.) on a day-to-day basis, and what kind of salaries can one expect?
I am aware of data scientist/analyst in various industries, machine learning specialist, operations research, and working on physics simulators in visual effects/computer games.
Are there any others?
- fastneutron 4y agoAnything in scientific computing and engineering software development is a good fit for applied mathematics graduates. The US national labs (DOE, NASA) are heavily involved in this field, as well as software vendors like Ansys, Siemens, etc.
