CS Or Stats Degree for Data Science?
Post Flair (click to view more posts with a particular flair)
Post Body

I want to pursue something in the field of data science. I was planning to be a data engineer once I graduated and then eventually go to grad school to get a masters in either so I could try to earn a job as a Data Scientist, Machine Learning Engineer or Quantitative Analyst. Do you think a Computer Science or Stats degree would be better for this? I feel like much of the stats courses I need for this are out of my reach as a CS major (due to elective space) but I also feel like the Statistics degree obviously isnt teaching me much about computer science, but I am unsure how much in-depth computer science topic knowledge I need for those. Thoughts?

Thanks!
