<p>Based on this list, which major is the least math intensive...?:
* Accounting
* Finance
* General Business
* Information Systems
* International Business
* Supply Chain Management
* Marketing
* Operations Management </p>

<p>You will not be able to avoid at least some math while you are in college. However, the least math intensive is Marketing. And even Marketing has some math.</p>
<p>In order from most math to least math (in my opinion):</p>
<ul>
<li>Operations Management (assuming this includes operations research)</li>
<li>Finance</li>
<li>Accounting</li>
<li>Supply Chain Management</li>
<li><p>Information Systems</p></li>
<li><p>International Business/General Business/Marketing</p></li>
</ul>
<p>You’re going to see different types of math used in each program. OM should using a lot of probability theory and statistics (quality control, service line waiting, etc) and some calculus. SCM will use OR (supply-demand matching and shipment routing). Accounting with use mostly arithmetic with some basic calculus. Marketing, depending on how it is taught, should use psychometrics. Finance should use econometrics. ISM, General Business, and Global business will depend on how they are taught and can vary.</p>
<p>Ultimately, you’re going to have to use some type of math. The question is: which type of math?</p>
<p>I’m guessing statistics and intorductory calculus will suffice for General Business/Marketing/International Business. </p>
<p>Do you all also think that being an effective communicator is important in a major/career such as IS or Finance?</p>
<p>They might make you take them, but you will almost certainly not use calculus ever (like not even once in your classes or career) in General/International/Marketing.</p>
