OVERVIEW
The major in mathematics offers students a solid background in the classical areas of real and complex
analysis, modern algebra, and topology. Students are encouraged to develop interests in applied areas
such as operations research, probability, computer science, numerical analysis, financial mathematics,
and mathematical economics. Advanced students have ample opportunity to pursue independent study
under the guidance of faculty members. The major in mathematics prepares talented students to enter
MS or PhD degree programs at prestigious universities throughout the nation.

CAREER OPPORTUNITIES
The job opportunities in the Chicago area for statistics and mathematics graduates have generally
been well above the national norm. Chicago’s financial markets offer even more unique and exciting
opportunities. Loyola’s graduates have found careers in the actuarial sciences, teaching at the high
school and elementary school levels, business management, financial and research analysis, operations
research, technical writing, accounting, engineering, statistics, and consulting, among others.
RESOURCES
Many Loyola math majors are actively involved in the Math Club. Activities have included a lecture series
in mathematics and statistics presented by speakers from other universities and industry; field trips to
Argonne National Laboratory and Fermi Lab; and tutoring programs, social events, and fundraising
activities. Every spring, members of the Math Club assist in the Chicagowide high school math contest
hosted by Loyola. Loyola mathematics students also compete in the William Lowell Putnam national
mathematics competition.
