POPULARITY
Financial mathematics is the 298th most popular degree in America, with 400 students receiving their bachelors degree last year. It just beat out #299 Russian Language and Literature.
The degree is offered at a total of 36 colleges across the nation, and is the 315th most widely offered degree. It is only offered at 5% of the Top 100 Best Colleges in America.
It is also worth noting that 38% of colleges offering financial mathematics are public making it a relatively inaccessible field.
The far west produces the most financial mathematics graduates, largely led by University of California-Los Angeles, while it’s the Pacific-12 Conference that leads conference totals. As far as states, California ranks highest, with particular help from University of California-Los Angeles and University of Southern California.
All that being said, no individual school produces more financial mathematics graduates than Arizona State University-Tempe, which graduated 126 students last year alone. Although size is critical, another important factor to consider is the program’s density (the percent of all students that study financial mathematics). More students studied financial mathematics as a percentage of total students at Stevens Institute of Technology than any other college.
