>Why are a lot of people on /sci/ looking down on computer science degree?

Because computer scientists are getting all the attention and money with the recent advances in artificial intelligence. In addition, the scientific field of CS is producing the major breakthroughs of this era (e.g. internet, programming languages, artificial intellgence, delf-driving cars, computers). Indeed it is a very exiting time for being a computer scientist. On the other hand, /sci/ is butthurt mainly by two reasons:

- 90% of /sci/ are engineers, they are not scientists. Therefore, they perceive CS students as a threat, since the field is starting to eat real world by automating jobs that engineers typically did.

- /sci/ believes that CS is shit due to the fact that they barely studied in a top tier university. Thus, 80% of /sci/ has a wrong idea of what actually is CS. For instance, consider: >>8202208

>shhhh... don't tell them

CE is math for engineers (i.e. no proofs, books like stewart calculus and compute as many integrals as you can).

CS is math at the same level as a math major. CS assumes that you will need this heavy math load in order to create new technology. On the other hand CE is just for someone who is willing to follow a technical carrer.

SE is this >>7745144

Also, If you want a detailed explanation, why dont you go to the ACM computing curricula?. However, I am not surprised about all the shit posting about CS. We all know that /sci/ is 90% engineers, furthermore how many of /sci/ engineers come from top tier universities?.

Nice try ompa loompa. However, this is a nonsense, non of your majors would have sense without computers. Even your life would not have sense without computers.
