<p>Well, I'm reaching the end of my undergraduate career and find that the last thing I want to do is go to graduate school in mathematics. It's not because I dislike it, but I don't feel like learning more about proofs. I've had my fair share this year and no longer care for them. I did physics and applied math classes, but the ones I hated were specific to Industrial Engineering. I am one class short away from a physics minor, but I am graduating. I took Mathematical Physics, Astrophysics, Quantum Physics I and II, and our three main physics classes core sequence here. So, that is my physics background. I took senior level differential equations and partial differential equations. I'm taking a numerical methods course right now as well. My degree is a bachelor of science in Applied Mathematics/Statistics. I did well in C++/MATLAB and realize coding will probably be part of my life, but I do not want to become a programmer or software engineer as a career.</p>
<p>I'm very fascinated by the aerospace industry and I grew up with my dad working in the industry his entire working life. However, I figured math was for me until I saw what it was all about after taking proofs classes such as Complex Analysis, Real Analysis, and Abstract Algebra (I did well in them and enjoyed them, but I think they're generally useless). I took classes in Operations Research, but I did it only because it was the only thing open that would let me graduate on time. I hated them, although they were relatively easy. </p>
<p>So, really, does anyone have a suggestion on what my options are? Do I have to go back and get an undergraduate degree in aerospace engineering because I lack many prerequisites? </p>
<p>Note: At my school, no other major other than an engineering major can register for engineering classes. Otherwise, I would've taken some.</p>
