Bachelor's in Pure Math, Master's in Applied Math Is this possible and if so, is it preferable? I want to get my bachelor's degree in pure mathematics so I have a more broad and deep understanding of math, and then specialize in something more specific and real-world for graduate school. I really do not want to get a PhD because that would mean going to school into my late 20s and early 30s. I also plan on minoring in Computer Science so I have a decent knowledge of computers, which would really help me when it comes to getting a good job.
I know it's different for different countries and areas, but is this is a good idea to get a Bachelor's in Pure and then a Master's in Applied? I want to have a theoretical background in mathematics but I do not want to end up in research or university teaching (I don't want to continue pure math to a PhD level). Thanks.
