Certain projects may not *require* a math background to do efficiently, but there are many, many that will; try implementing a dynamic programming reccurance (ie, create an optimized BST or solve the assembly line problem) without a mathematical background. Any compression or encryption algorithm will require a mathematic background -- for example, RSA encryption/key generation or Base64 encoding.

In fact, almost any advanced algorithm (ie, not selection sort) will have a strong mathematical basis.
