<p>You do not need to major in math for those jobs. I definitely agree taking some math classes is helpful, but Abstract Algebra and Real Analysis are not going to help with regressions and statistical analysis. After a few applied math courses, I would think some courses in computer science would be more helpful for those jobs than a theoretical math track.</p>
