Mathematical methods and models are used in fields such as astronomy, mechanics, medicine, economics, and engineering. By simulating processes on a computer, for example, complex technical problems can be solved mathematically rather than experimentally.
In scientific research, you employ mathematical methods and procedures to develop abstract models for real systems or problems and publish your research results.
In higher education, you teach students, prepare lectures and seminars, assess student work, and conduct examinations.
In automotive R&D, for example, you use computational models to determine the effects a crash can have on vehicle occupants.
In the development and implementation of automated systems, you perform mathematical planning and program computational processes.
You evaluate the data obtained, assemble the results, and present them to the experts involved. In doing so, you also make suggestions on how systems and processes can be further optimized.
