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...

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.
 

Thread 'Hepth programs in Europe'

After a year of thought, I decided to adjust my ratio for applying the US/EU(+UK) schools. I mostly focused on the US schools before, but things are getting complex and I found out that Europe is also a good place to study. I found some institutes that have professors with similar interests. But gaining the information is much harder than US schools (like you have to contact professors in advance etc). For your information, I have B.S. in engineering (low GPA: 3.2/4.0) in Asia - one SCI...

Thread 'Should I pursue a masters degree after 4.5 years working in IT?'

I graduated with a BSc in Physics in 2020. Since there were limited opportunities in my country (mostly teaching), I decided to improve my programming skills and began working in IT, first as a software engineer and later as a quality assurance engineer, where I’ve now spent about 3 years. While this career path has provided financial stability, I’ve realized that my excitement and passion aren’t really there, unlike what I felt when studying or doing research in physics. Working in IT...

Thread 'Tips for a CS and physics major'

Hello, I’m an undergraduate student pursuing degrees in both computer science and physics. I was wondering if anyone here has graduated with these degrees and applied to a physics graduate program. I’m curious about how graduate programs evaluated your applications. In addition, if I’m interested in doing research in quantum fields related to materials or computational physics, what kinds of undergraduate research experiences would be most valuable?
