I am interested in applied math but there are not many colleges that have these majors. What other majors that are in more colleges that I could do that are similar to Applied Math
You might check out majors like statistics, econometrics (also called mathematical economics), data analytics, computational science, computational biology, actuarial science, quantitative ecology, and systems engineering. There are many other possibilities. It really just depends on which field you want to apply math skills to.
Even if the school doesnt offer a specific Applied Math degree, you can make one it up by taking CompSci and non-theorymath electives. Here is Buffalo’s AM program:
MTH 141 College Calculus I
MTH 142 College Calculus II
MTH 241 College Calculus III
CSE 115 Introduction to Computer Science for Majors I
MTH 306 Introduction to Differential Equations
MTH 309 Introductory Linear Algebra
MTH 311 Introduction to Higher Mathematics
MTH 337 Introduction to Scientific and Mathematical Computing
MTH 417 Survey of Multivariable Calculus
MTH 418 Survey of Partial Differential Equations
MTH 419 Introduction to Abstract Algebra or MTH 420 Advanced Linear Algebra
MTH 431 Introduction to Real Variables I
MTH 443 Fundamentals of Applied Mathematics I
Three 300/400-level mathematics courses
Three 300/400-level courses in mathematics or computer science
PHY 107 General Physics I
PHY 108 General Physics II
If you can expand on what you’d like to do with the degree (i.e. what job you want), then the advice given can be tailored for you.
Many colleges have an applied math option for a general math major.
