Bachelor of Science [B.S] [Mathematics Education - Major] From Berry College

The idea of infinity was first explained by mathematicians, for example, although originated by philosophers and theologians. While mathematics has practical applications to many academic disciplines, including business, computer science, psychology, political science, music, chemistry and physics, most mathematicians do not study mathematics because it is useful. Instead, they study mathematics for the same reason that other people study art, music or literature – because it interests them.
