Keegan Kang

MMORSE 2012

PhD student in Statistical Science at Cornell

When I was taking my A levels, I wanted to be an actuary because I liked Mathematics, and thought MMORSE would be an ideal degree because it allowed me to get exemptions for actuarial examinations. I ended up changing my mind lots of times about what I wanted to do after graduation - but thankfully, MMORSE was flexible enough and provided me with sufficient mathematical and statistical background for other jobs I was interested in, and allowed me to chose modules I was interested in doing.

I even did a Introduction to Secondary School Teaching course when I was considering becoming a teacher, and had the opportunity to go to Africa to teach for six weeks during summer!
