Educational: For entry into the field of Mathematics, you need to have a degree in Mathematics or a B.Sc. in Pure Science with a strong aptitude for Mathematics. A bachelor's degree in mathematics is offered by most colleges and universities. Those with bachelor degree can take courses in a field that is closely related to mathematics, such as computer science, engineering, life science, physical science, or economics. They can otherwise go for master level courses in pure or applied mathematics and even do Ph.D which is required for research and academic jobs.
Personal Attributes: Prospective mathematicians must have above average intelligence and a natural feeling for numbers, spatial figures and problem solving skills. They require a keen eye for detail and a love for study and experimentation. Logical thoughts, reasoning skill and the ability to work systematically and accurately are essential. Self-discipline and a wide general knowledge are also important qualities. They must have the patience to spend long periods of time concentrating on complex problems. They must be able to work independently. They must also be able to present their own ideas clearly for which good communication skill is required. Mathematicians also should have substantial knowledge of computer programming because today most complex mathematical computation and much mathematical modeling is done on a computer.
