This video covers the math major including applied math vs pure math, courses you'll take, and careers you can go into. The math major in undergrad involves a lot of the same classes whether you go into applied math or pure math include Calculus, linear algebra, differential equations, proofs, abstract algebra, real analysis, and more. But you will be able to take electives in pure or applied math concepts.
Pure math is about using math to solve problems in math. Then applied math is about using math to solve problems outside of math (such as physics, engineering, finance, chemistry, biology, etc). Many pure math students end up getting their PhD so they can work in academia on research. Overall math students can go into a variety of fields including engineering, software development, teaching, finance, and more.
