>>11573223>more prestigious I’d say the Gõdel prize and Turing award are fairly prestigious lmao. Computer science (PhD and research) is already prestigious, unless you’re talking about codemonkeying.
>>11573387Eh it depends, there are a lot of useful results in math and CS both. The intersection between these research cultures is larger than you’d think.
>>11573320This generally makes both single CS and single math majors angry. CS majors think you lose out on experience until you tell them about research and internships, and math majors think you lose out on higher math until you tell them you’re in honors and currently on functional analysis, algebraic topology, etc.
Quite frankly you’re a brainlet if you can’t do both
>>11573794CS isn’t programming but this is false lmao.
>architecture and compilers This is standard 2nd year classes in CS
>real time systemsSuch as? In CS you do actually do real time systems in OS, embedded, and networks.
>microcontrollers In embedded or ML projects. Also, you think writing in C but with a different compiler counts as meaningfully different undergrad experiences in programming? Dude you’re huffing your own farts here
>robotics This is an elective for both mechE and CS, and there’s a lot of overlap. Both departments at my school taught this and if you were interested, the schools encouraged you to take both. Also, I’ve never seen an applied class kick people down in both the mathematics and the implementation like a graphics and visualization.
