There is not much mathematics actually used in economics? I was under the impression economists use high-level mathematics and computer models.

Assuming I were to major in Economics, there are a few different specializations available: Business Economics, Macroeconomics and Finance, Economic Theory, Econometrics and Empirical Economics, and International Economics and Development. Economic Theory seems the most appealing to me...

There is always the possibility of discovering what credentials you require to act as a consultant to law firms as an expert witness, in something like analyzing car accidents. I know from working at law firms as my job during college, that there are many people who consult as expert witnesses...

This assumption is not true. Which empirical theory of quantum mechanics requires the necessity for a "greater mind/creator/God"?

That movie has nothing to do with physics or mathematics. Absolutely nothing. It is pure mysticism, with integrated physics language, as an attempt to accredit the beliefs and mystical conjectures as scientifically oriented.

Have you considered computational physics, which involves a lot of complex computer modeling of physics?

The techniques required for learning are subjective. Whichever is the best method of extrapolating, understanding, and applying the knowledge you have learned, is what is the best method or technique. If sitting down and spending four hours on homework, allows you to understand and solve...

Mathematics is considered the "language" of physics. Physics uses mathematics as a tool for understanding and gaining insight into physical phenomena and is used to illustrate and describe physical experiments, and theoretical models of reality. Unless you actively pursue the underlying...

Honestly, listen to whatever mathwonk says, he speaks gold.

JasonRox killed the thread. :!) :bugeye: :biggrin:

I just learned what y=mx+b was about 7 months ago. The highest math that I learned was in my (american) high school, algebraic arithmetic (Algebra I and Geometry). I hated math so I took this course three times because I failed it twice, simply because I would hand in my tests, blank. My...

Well, I am still learning Calculus but I will learn the relevant Calculus in conjunction with this and then shoot myself in the face with excitement. Actually, I will just take the test and quietly hand it back in! Let's gooooogooggogo. Also, no one is allowed to be sober in any fashion while...

I'll participate in this competition for the hell of it! I'll win the grand prize, that is fer sher.

You can BUY a laptop for significantly LESS than $1,700, that's absurd they make you 'lease' it. The rest of the description seems ridiculous! Go as far away as you can, like everyone else has mentioned. Do the best you can at the University that you transfer into and more options will be...

I would contend that engineers are highly employable, assuming one constructs a solid academic path, integrating utility through a broad spectrum of courses, such as business, mathematics, social-sciences, etc. The engieering world seems much more corporate and business oriented, than the...
