I have recently been noticing the surprising amount of people who are/have majored in mathematics who like the Austrian School.
I just wanted to have a call-out, and see how many of us are there.
Two.
Three.
I might major in math.
Liars, everyone knows Austrians can’t do maths.
i majored in math
I have a B.S. in Economics and I am finishing up a second Bachelor’s in Mathematics with a concentration in Statistics.
I’m another math major
I majored in Computer Science and Math.
As did I.
Any room for a non-math major that pretty much loves math anyways? Particularly Discrete Mathmatics and Set Theory?
Math and Computer Science focusing on bioinformatics.
I have a B.A. and M.S. in Mathematics and I am an actuary.
We can accomodate for that.
It makes a lot of sense that Mathematicians are predisposed to Austrian Economics. Mathemematic truths are deducted from postulates to form theorems. This is rather similar to the Austrian method of deducting economic law from axioms.
Quicksilver:
I am interested in being an actuary. How do you like the profession?
I picked up Math as a second major (Econ being my first).
Also easier to cut through the econometric modeling bs.
Utility functions and the like.
Wow, a lot more response than I expected. Let me know if any of you guys are near Purdue for a conference or something.
Yeah. But but if you’re into that make certain you get a course in Abstract Algebra. That’s the bedrock of set theory.
