People often don’t understand that math is pretty much in all fields of STEM. For example students at my university start chemistry thinking they will be at most balancing chemical reactions or calculating concetrations, but then differential equations and linear algebra starts. During my first year about half of the students failed the introductory physics course.
I have a family member who studies fish at a post doc level. He had to learn a bunch of calculus and statistical analysis just to be able to actually make use of the data they collect. Anyone who wants to design and publish research has to have a pretty good grasp of a lot of math.

I invite you to have a look at some of the studies, when there is a new “pyschologists found out that your poor sleep comes from your mom having an affair with your goldfish” style headline. Then you find out they asked like 30 people they got from an online survery or so.
I work in biology and the amount of people who work in the field because they hate maths is… considerable. As others have said, the field is almost entirely quantitative and statistics nowadays, so, lol
Architecture was moved to a STEM field in 2019.
I haven’t had trouble with math, but due to the lack of exposure to it in architecture, I didn’t do good on the math exam needed for stem fields lmfao
Still don’t get why you need maths for computer science. Like programming originated in maths or something? Maybe they just use it to filter people out. Seems to work quite well then.
Are you… Serious? Because computers are math machines. That’s literally their purpose. If you’re programming anything lower level than a JS app then you need to understand what’s going on closer to the hardware. CS is a pretty general field and I appreciate the math classes that I’ve taken so far because I am planning to go into embedded systems and therefore will be actually using a lot of it.

As civil engineers we used to joke that architects are mostly artists and wouldn’t know what they are doing.
There is some brilliant architects that do know their physics for building design and construction, but they seem to be far and few in between.
