[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m in the industry. [b]Strongly suggest the math should focus on modeling and simulation (via whatever CS courses that requires). Many, many job opportunities with that background. [/b] Would advise history or poli sci as minor. Consider schools in DC - when I was at GW there were many adjuncts with industry day jobs.[/quote] My son is interning this summer with a DC company that does military work and is on a project that does modeling and simulations for a naval project. He's at VT majoring in Computational Modeling and Data Analytics, basically math+cs. His concentration is cryptography and cybersecurity. [/quote] This is all great advice, thank you. I think I'll try to get them to look into the CS classes - they took one their first year and were not interested nor very good at it. Perhaps more statistics classes would satisfy the modeling part? I'm not quite sure what is meant by modeling and simulations, is that programming or knowing how to use the tech?[/quote]
