Studying mathematics sometimes made me wonder if I would ever be able to find a job outside academia, but seeing that I now work as a data analyst at a media agency, I can say I was definitely wrong. The logical mindset and analytical skills I had fresh out of AUS allowed me to become a valuable member of my team and start contributing in ways even my more experienced colleagues could not. The things you learn by studying mathematics are incredibly fundamental, but also in short supply in the professional world, so they will help you stand out no matter where you end up working.
