Cassidy Peterson ’13
Applied Mathematics
Because of my background in marine biology and math, a potential adviser at University of Florida offered me a Ph.D. candidate position following the completion of my M.S. while I was still an undergrad, proving how in-demand mathematically-minded marine biologists really are. Regardless of the job market, there will always be a place for researchers who bridge the disciplines of math and biology.
