[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you are VA instate and in for CS at VT, [b]no need to look at Penn State whatsoever.[/b] [/quote] OP here. This is what I am thinking as well. Especially when some folks are commenting that an actual degree in Data Science is not as truly useful as CS/Stats. It looks like there is value in both Stat (minor in CS) and CS (minor in Stat) paths. I am leaning toward the CS major as the best path, but my DS thinks he might prefer the Stat major, which has quite a bit more flexibility with electives and such. He'll have to switch out of the College of Engineering at VT, but I think that should be easy to do.[/quote] In general, CS major + Stat minor is the way to go if the kid can handle it. [/quote]
