Studying a Mathematics course with diverse content.
Apologies if this is the wrong thread for this. But I'm hoping someone could impose some wisdom on me.
I currently have a 1st class hons in Mathematics from a non RG university. My degree was a mixture of pure and applied.
I have worked for 2 nearly 3 years in data analytics but realise that I want to do something more advanced. I also miss the level of mathematics I studied previously.
So, later this year, I will be studying a UK masters course. Currently, I have offers for 4 courses spread across 2 RG universities.
Mathematics x 2
Financial Mathematics
Mathematical and Theoretical Physics
As of my understanding, studying solely mathematics is a terrible idea if I choose to go back into a career outside of academia. however, my interests are very broad. I also decided that I want to use this Masters as an opportunity to build my understanding of interdisciplinary topics such as those in physics (quantum computing, for example) and finance.
for these reasons, I have been pulled towards courses that satisfy this.
My question is given studying a course called 'mathematics' implies only mathematics has been taught, is there any benefit to learning interdisciplinary topics like QFT in a mathematics course, if I wanted to move into a field such as quantum computing or will having studied relevent content in the course be sufficient to transition into such a field?
