Applied mathematicians use mathematical theories and procedures, like modeling and computational methods, to find solutions and formulas to business; government; engineering; and physical, life, and social science problems. Industry relies on applied mathematics for the design and development of products such as computers, cars, communication systems, textiles and prescription drugs. Applied mathematics is at the heart of processes and services such as supply chains, logistics and production scheduling. Advances in science and technology in areas such as information technology, climatology, biological sciences, economic modeling and environmental emissions modeling, have resulted from the use of mathematic techniques. Mathematics is the study of the measurement, properties, and relationships of quantities and sets, using numbers and symbols. Mathematicians use tools such as mathematical theory, well-defined procedures called algorithms, and the latest computer technology to solve economic, scientific, engineering, physics, and business problems. Mathematics is divided into two areas: theoretical, or pure, mathematics, and applied mathematics. However, these two areas often overlap. Mathematicians doing applied work use the theories and laws developed by theoretical mathematicians. Applied mathematicians solve specific problems in such fields as physical science, social science, business, computer science, government, biology, and engineering. They may work in the electronics industry developing new kinds of computers and software. Applied mathematicians sometimes study numerical information about medical problems, such as the effect of a new drug on a disease. Applied mathematics is a subset of mathematics where a mathematician uses mathematical principles to solve applied problems. Business analytics are heavily reliant on evaluating numerical-based outcomes of business operations. Those in the field also work with sophisticated models that require an understanding of logistic regression modeling techniques for application into loss forecasting and risk strategies.   This position is part of a team that adapts, updates, and integrates software models of various threat weapon systems and analytic tools into the Integrated Threat Analysis & Simulation Environment (ITASE), and perform analytic studies using ITASE simulations in support of the SCAR Program.
