There is A LOT of careers you can get into with a Maths degree, and I am not exaggerating. In fact, quite a lot of job do not require a specific degree. You can use Sheffield's graduate destination data to see the kind of jobs a lot of their graduate do (here's Imperial's grad destination too). You could also read this article to see who employs Maths graduate.
You can maths debate. :wink:

Here's what the IMA (Institute for Mathematics and its Applications) have put together, I think the Royal Statistical Society (RSS) have a similar one.

Well, yeah actually :u:
There are the obvious things that specifically require analytically-minded people, but you'll also pick up many transferable skills (this will open the door to a multitude of other professions :yes:).

And maths/physics degrees are widely considered to be the most difficult, which means that they're very well respected :biggrin:
