Math is necessary for daily tasks in life. Some of which you might not even think about. Reach into your pocket and pull out some change. You need math to figure how much money you have. This is a simple example. How much math do you need to know to be x, y or z? Well, most engineering fields require an understanding of differential equations, which are necessary to solve rate problems. Electrical engineering requires a substantial amount of mathematical knowledge.

Chemical engineers would deal with a chemical process in motion (like in a refinery), so the rate of change that the chemical reactions take place is important for the desired product to be produced at an optimum rate, while maintaining the safety of everybody involved in the operation. This is a mathematical process.

Mathematics is the language of physical sciences and engineering.
