If you look at job ads online, you won't find many requests for applied mathematicians. That's because "applied mathematics'' is not a profession in itself, but an education that can lead to many different professions. That can be a real advantage because as an applied math graduate you are not "typecast''. Years after graduation, as the needs of the economy change, you will be able to use your education to quickly and efficiently retrain yourself for the new opportunities (which may not be the case for many "professionals''). Keep in mind that the days when people stayed in one job for a lifetime are over!

The University of Waterloo acknowledges that much of our work takes place on the traditional territory of the Neutral, Anishinaabeg and Haudenosaunee peoples. Our main campus is situated on the Haldimand Tract, the land granted to the Six Nations that includes six miles on each side of the Grand River. Our active work toward reconciliation takes place across our campuses through research, learning, teaching, and community building, and is centralized within our Office of Indigenous Relations.
