mathematician
Mathematicians study and deepen existing mathematical theories in order to expand the knowledge and find new paradigms within the field. They can apply this knowledge to challenges presented in engineering and scientific projects in order to assure that measurements, quantities, and mathematic laws prove their viability.
Also called: mathematics science researcher, mathematics research scientist, logic researcher, logic scholar, logic science researcher, logician, mathematicians, mathematics researcher
