應用數學是一個引人入勝的領域，你可能會想說它跟數學有什麼差異，其實最主要的差別就在於數學是專門研究公式或數字，比較偏學術理論；可是應用數學卻會把這些證明或公式套用到生活中，解決工程或科學等領域的問題。
以下我們將列出美國 144 所提供應用數學系的大學，如果你也對這門專業感興趣的話，趕快來看看吧！
應用數學系簡介
應用數學系可以說是把兩個專業合而為一，首先，學生必須要有很好的數學能力，包含微積分、統計學等等；其次，學生必須把這些數學能力運用到另一個領域中，它們可能是電腦科學、工程，或者是商業。因此在大學四年中除了數學能力之外，學生也會花一些時間研究如何把數學能力運用到另一個領域中。
根據美國勞工統計局的統計，2020 年應用數學家的平均年薪約為 $93,290 美元，未來 10 年的成長率高達 33%，比起任何職業都高的理由可能是因為各行各業幾乎都需要用到數學，尤其是近年來統計與科學數據愈來愈發達的情況下，就讀應用數學系將會是一個非常好的選擇。
