4. Job Description  Apply principles of accounting to analyze financial information and prepare financial reports by compiling information, preparing profit and loss statements, and utilizing appropriate accounting control procedures. Requirements  Completion of a Bachelor's Degree in Accounting, three to five years of accounting experience and successful completion of CPA exams.  Work requires willingness to work a flexible schedule.

5. Job Description  Statisticians collect and analyze mathematical data to solve problems and make predictions on future outcomes.  Apply their knowledge to many different fields, including manufacturing, government, science, engineering, and public health.  Using statistical techniques, statisticians can make forecasts on population growth, economic conditions, or the outcome of elections. Requirements  Although employment opportunities exist for individuals with a bachelor's degree, a master's degree in statistics or mathematics is usually the minimum educational requirement for most statistician jobs.

6. Job Description  Actuaries work with numbers and facts to answer such questions as How much do people lose every year because of fires, floods, or robbery?  Checking facts, working with statistics programs, and constructing probability charts, actuaries are able to tell insurance companies how much to charge a policyholder for a particular type of coverage.  The fee, or premium, must be sufficient so that the company will be able to pay the customer in case of loss and still make a profit. Requirements  To become an actuary, a person needs a bachelor's degree with a strong background in mathematics and statistics.  Courses in insurance law and accounting can also help.

7. Job Description  Mathematics is the study of the measurement, properties, and relationships of quantities and sets, using numbers and symbols.  Mathematicians use tools such as mathematical theory, well-defined procedures called algorithms, and the latest computer technology to solve economic, scientific, engineering, physics, and business problems.  Mathematicians working in theoretical mathematics are concerned with expanding and clarifying mathematical theories and laws.  Mathematicians doing applied work use the theories and laws developed by theoretical mathematicians. Applied mathematicians solve specific problems in such fields as physical science, social science, business, computer science, government, biology, and engineering. Requirements  Generally need a doctoral degree to become a mathematician.  If you have a bachelor's degree, you may be able to find a job as an assistant to a mathematician.

8. Job Description  Aerospace engineers design, develop, and test aircraft, missiles, and space vehicles and oversee their production.  In some cases, they also work with earthbound vehicles, such as deep-diving vessels that are used to do research in the oceans and high-speed trains that float above their tracks.  Some aerospace engineers work for government agencies, such as the Department of Defense or the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA).  Aerospace engineering is a broad field. Its general area of concern overlaps with areas of other engineering fields, including mechanical, chemical, and electrical. Requirements  Beginning aerospace engineers need at least a bachelor's degree in engineering.  Degree holders in mathematics or the natural sciences may qualify for certain jobs.

9. Job Description  The study of the theoretical foundations of information and computation and their application in computer systems.  Computer scientists typically work on the theoretical side of computer systems.  Although computer scientists can also focus their work and research on specific areas (such as algorithm development and design, software engineer, information theory, database theory, computer programming, programming language theory, computer graphics and computer vision), their foundation is the theoretical study of computing from which these other fields derive. Requirements  Advanced University Degree, preferably a Master’s or PhD in computer science, physics, math, engineering, technical management or a technically related field.

10. Job Description  The Finance officer primarily is accountable for maintaining the financial, administrative, personnel and accounting services of an organization.  It is the responsibility of the finance officer to prepare financial statements, prepare payroll, and maintain cash reins, accounts payable maintenance as well as supervision of office operations. Requirements  It is sufficient to possess a degree in finance.  Needs to have fine analytical understanding, awareness of the markets and economy, passion for numbers as well as penchant of following financial trends.

11. Job Description  A Cryptologist is someone who is skilled at deciphering codes, puzzles or cryptograms, and at creating them in order to protect private information.  Cryptologists create secret codes used for communicating military secrets, protecting government, medical and other private information, disguising spy communications, and for encrypting our own personal information to protect it from prying eyes on the Internet. Requirements  An entry-level Cryptology job will require at least a BS in computer science, mathematics, foreign languages, engineering, telecommunications, computer programming languages, political science and/or international relations.  Mid-level and advanced cryptology jobs require fluency in foreign languages, mastery of computer programming languages, and/or extensive mathematics knowledge, in addition to a Masters of Science or PhD degree in one of the areas of study listed above.

12. Job Description  Operations research analysts are problem solvers.  They try to find more efficient and effective ways to run operations such as factories, telephone networks, traffic systems, and other concerns.  Many large organizations need the services of operations research analysts because inefficient operating methods can result in significant financial losses.  Regardless of the field in which they work, operations research analysts must be able to think logically.  They must be able to analyze many parts of a complex problem at the same time. Requirements  A person needs a master's degree in operations research or in a closely related field to become an operations research analyst.  A good background in applied mathematics is essential.
