[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Mapping. Probably has a technical name but I love everything about the idea of maps linked to databases. [/quote] This is what I do! The major would be Geography or Cartography. What you’re describing is GIS, Geographic Information Systems.[/quote] Meant to add, even better major wise would be a degree in CS with a minor or double major in Geography.[/quote] This is essentially what my son is doing -- Computational Modeling & Data Analytics (basically a blend of CS & statistics) w/ a GIS concentration.[/quote] This sounds amazing but does it involve a lot of calculus?[/quote] Yes, lots of math. Calculus 1-2, a couple math modeling classes, a couple "integrated quantitative sciences" classes (calc 2 is prereq for those), Linear Algebra. And depending on elective choices can either take more from the math/stats side or more from the CS side. He loves math and maps.[/quote]
