Question

I am currently studying Business Administration and I have read that some of the jobs it leads to are a claims adjuster, examiner, investigator, administrative services manager, how does the strong math background figure into these?

Answer 1

A degree in business leads to a lot more kinds of jobs than you list.  Within business, there are several different concentrations that you can study.  There are several where a strong math background is helpful -- including Finance, Accounting, IT Management and Operations Research. (OR)

Finance and OR require more math than the others.

Answer 2

Cost analysis, accounting, If you are in business; it is all about  money. claims adj=deciding how little/much the claim is worth etc.

Math will figure into about EVERY career in some way or another.
