Best double major to go along with CS?

[sabid]

I'm currently at UofT..in Comp Sci..and have been considering adding a complimentary major with CS..any suggestions?

Pure Math, if you are into that sort of thing.

Which branches of CS are you wanting to focus for your major? Here are a couple of options with brief explanations:

Physics - If you like studying hardware and its design.

Mathematics - If you like logic and abstract concepts.

For myself, I did a double with "Combinatorics & Optimization," but I think that major may be specific to Waterloo.

NeuroPsych. Computers and the human brain are going to compliment each other very nicely in the next 20 years, and someone who can bridge the two will be indispensable.

Math.

Hmm I was leaning more towards Biology/Psychology/Neuroscience. Which from would compliment CS?

I am going to waterloo next year....i was wondering if i could actually do a double major with math and computer science? and would it take me longer? I am definitely going into coop, so i am already there for 5 years , and i don't want to stay there too long .

Depends in what your interests are.
but physics is a good compliment to computers i'd say, but that's just because of my personal interest.

Personally, I would do pure math as it will help in the coding side of CS. However, since you are at UfT any Neuro program will be great as well and as methodoxx said so himself in the near future the two will not be that far apart.
