What are some unique internships you can get over the summer as a math major?

I’m not sure what I want to do after college yet, so I’d love to get some experience in many different fields before leaving college.

James (AJ)’s Answer

You're in luck; math is everywhere! You might be amazed at how a math major can bring value to roles that seem unrelated. For instance, a Product Management intern with math skills can help create or validate predictive models or excel in cost-benefit analysis. A Software Engineering intern can tackle mathematical problems and build algorithms in many areas like medical, automotive, financial, gaming, and meteorology. Data analysis and modeling are also fantastic skills that can be used in almost any professional field. Cyber-Security and Cryptology are other areas where math skills shine.

Even if an internship posting doesn't say "Math Majors Apply," don't let that stop you. Be creative, go for interesting roles, find problems, and solve them.

Skills like math, data analysis, and logical thinking are highly valued in today's job market. Follow your interests and see where they lead you. Technology and math work together in amazing ways.

Wishing you the best of luck, and keep exploring!
