Hello everyone. Most likely, I will soon be transferring to NJIT and majoring in applied physics. NJIT offers double major programs in applied physics and either applied math or computer science. If I had to pick one out of pure interest, I would probably go with applied math; however, computer science seems much more relevant in today's job market and I also find it quite interesting. Any thoughts?

I would say computer science as well.
 
I say computer science as well. You'll get a healthy amount of math in your physics + CS degrees
 
Thanks for the replies. I think the dual major with computer science is the way I'm going to go.
 
All in favor of computer science, say Eye...

Eye!
