MHB Advice Needed: Majoring in Computer Engineering & Minoring in Math

AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers around choosing math classes to complete a minor in math while majoring in Computer Engineering. The individual is considering taking History of Mathematics and Linear Algebra, as well as Discrete Mathematics, but faces prerequisites that complicate the decision. Linear Algebra and Discrete Mathematics are highlighted as enjoyable and beneficial courses for a future in computer engineering. The desire to take a theory of coding class is noted, but its multiple prerequisites pose a barrier. Ultimately, the focus is on selecting two additional math courses to fulfill the minor requirements efficiently.

hey guys (Wave). ok so i been thinking. what I'm going to do is major in Computer Engineering and get a minor in math and econ. for a minor in math i need two more classes after my required math classes for engineering. i am thinking to take History of Mathematics. i want to take discrete math but for that i need a class required before that which is not in my required courses for C.E. so that would mean an extra course. I hate my adviser so I am coming to you guys :o do you guys think i should take or do you guys recommend any other "fun" math class?

or linear algebra. i might take that instead. or a beginning advanced mathematics class...

i want to take the class that's about theory of coding but it has 3 pre-reqs...

I would recommend those too. Definitely useful to know as a computer engineer. (Cool)

yeah because i need to take calc1,2,3 and differential equations and then i need to more math courses. i might take linear algebra i think. i really wanted to take the theory of coding but it has too many classes that are pr-requisites.
 
Hey, I am Andreas from Germany. I am currently 35 years old and I want to relearn math and physics. This is not one of these regular questions when it comes to this matter. So... I am very realistic about it. I know that there are severe contraints when it comes to selfstudy compared to a regular school and/or university (structure, peers, teachers, learning groups, tests, access to papers and so on) . I will never get a job in this field and I will never be taken serious by "real"...
TL;DR Summary: I want to do a PhD in applied math but I hate group theory, is this a big problem? Hello, I am a second-year math and physics double major with a minor in data science. I just finished group theory (today actually), and it was my least favorite class in all of university so far. It doesn't interest me, and I am also very bad at it compared to other math courses I have done. The other courses I have done are calculus I-III, ODEs, Linear Algebra, and Prob/Stats. Is it a...
