.. why wouldn't it be? If you answer involves "programmin" or any implication that CS is about programming your argument goes in to the trash.

Mathematics
>Advanced Calculus by Edwards
>Linear Algebra Done Right by Axler
>Topics in Algebra by Herstein
>PMA by Rudin
>Topology by Munkres
and a select topic book of personal interest from the following
>Topological or Smooth Manifolds by Lee
>A Mathematical Intro to Logic by Enderton

To be complete, I'd also learn at least 1 compiled programming language (e.g. C++) and one scripting language (e.g. Python)

What about EE?

Good books but more like SE than CS

>>9181789
CS is literally the only STEM where you can read just 6 textbooks and actually be good at it.

This isn't even open to debate. Shilov is THE undergrad book in english.

Again, not even open to debate. D&F for undergrad algebra

Finally a good book. Though if you want to self-study, get Zorich
>Munkres
Can't go wrong with him, everything he's written is a gem

>>9182579
lmao good luck getting a job without a CS or SE degree (even if you are better than them)

Advanced Calculus generally refers to an intro to real analysis course

Why do you think that, also before you answer see >>9182499

>>9181789
do these assume 0 CS knowledge? I'm a math masters student btw, so what im asking is could i dive into these with no background?

For math:
French dictionary
Bourbaki - Théorie des ensembles
Bourbaki - Algèbre
Bourbaki - Topologie générale
Bourbaki - Fonctions d'une variable réelle
Bourbaki - Espaces vectoriels topologiques

>>9182488

Your IQ isn't high enough for you to justify being so condescending. The T in STEM stands for technology. That makes for an unequivocal inclusion of CS in the STEM umbrella. I'm not even in CS but kys.

Systems engineering?

>>9183041
That's what happens when you dumb your education system down to folk who live, breathe, and propagate a willfully ignorant and anti-intellectual subculture.

Anon, are you sure you are in a CS program? The 90s are over, nobody teaches or cares about operational systems

>>9184166
There's a 6 textbook limit

Calculus is understood to be a part of all STEM degrees so it doesn't need an explicit mention. OS covers the fundamental concurrency concepts that apply to both operating systems and distributed systems in the same manner.

I'm not in a CS program I'm done with my CS program and gainfully employed.

That's seven, but I decided to break the rule because it isn't that much larger than six.
A huge number of textbooks in each category so I wont bother listing my favorite.
My lecturers always used many textbooks, just specific chapters from each. So as their student I never became familiar with an individual.

>>9184151
Where's Horowitz's Art of Electronics?

>>9182065
for what

>>9183159
That's litterally the first math class we do here in the typical CS programme.
Discrete mathematics parallel with functional programing.

>>9181789
Programmer know theses 6 books begins above 97% and away superior Hacker news,slashdot or r/programming programmer.

>>9184558
Mech engineering?

What math courses do you have to take for a ME degree?

>>9183006
Axler, D&F, Rudin, Munkres is all you need. Came in one whole book under par

>>9186614
That's just the bare minimum and for yuropoors and i really disagree with Axler for a *math* degree, it's great for engineers, but Shilov is superior for a mathematician. And with the budget of one book you can get Demidovich excercise book.
Burgers need calc because jumping straight to anal would probably cause them a stroke.

>>9186638
Wtf you have that backwards, Axler is pure theory

Btw I go to an american top5 and I think you have a pretty inaccurate view of the math education here. My school offers calc 3-4 for engineers and people in biology and stuff but all serious math students take a combined linear algebra/analysis class and many of them are in graduate classes by the spring of sophomore year

>>9186644
Ivy league of course offers undergrad programmes on par with (if not better than) yuropoor.
And about the linear algebra you're right of course, damn me for confusing Axler for Lay and Shilov for Kostrikin, i learned linear algebra from a *very* hard textbook available just in my language, so i know others just from few chapters when i was comparing the depth.

Perfect, no one has posted geology yet.

Electives in an area of interest (e.g., remote sensing, paleontology, geochemistry, geophysics). By this time, you will have at least a general idea of the subdisciplines that you find interesting.

>>9186638
Edwards' Advanced Calculus book is for calculus in R^n with topological concerns, differential forms, variational caluclus and other special topics. It's similar to Calculus on Manifolds by Spivak but covers more. Not to mention the exercises are interesting and can be surprisingly involved. But I'm sure eurotards learn that 3rd grade or something.

>>9186737
I suspect this is a suggestion to replace Demidovich. Don't know about you, but i found his excercises in Problems in mathematical analysis plenty involved. Some i had a hard time tackling after going through the whole mandatory analysis course, and i wasn't bad at analaysis. I'll definitely take a look at the book though, thanks for bringing it up.
I hesitated to put an excercise book on the spot where i could put a book on differential geometry, intro to algebraic geometry through eliptic curves or other topics that would usually be covered by a non-mandatory course, but i think getting a strong skill in analysis is so essential to being a good mathematician that the last book has to be something like Demidovich.
And no, we don't usually learn topology in highschool. In my particular country, the highschool math level varies wildly because the normalized "graduation" exams are piss-easy, as in you would be able to pass it in elementary school, after learning functions, which is somewhere around 3rd grade. On my particular highschool, we learned calculus in 2nd grade (which is 16-17 years old) in the extent of Kolmogorov's highschool book (Mathematics: Its content, methods and meaning). Don't know how that translates to your syllabus, but i suspect your treatment of calculus is more rigorous and in-depth.

I think you mean CIS. CS majors can be taught to work just as close to the hardware as CE majors.

>list 9
>count 7
I see why I didn't bother listing the maths units.

>>9186601
I did 2 units of maths.
First one covered multi-variable calculus, linear algebra and differential equations.
Second one covered multi-dimensional integration, Laplace transforms, Fourier series, and statistics.
I did single variable calculus and similar level stuff in high school.
These 2 units were based on 2 textbooks.

Add to this at least 4 non-mandatory courses so you hit the credit minimum.

>Medicinal Chemistry undergrad

I skipped a couple texts that cover the general first year basics and the analytical stuff but otherwise these are pretty much what we used.

Bullshit

>>9184151
I would argue microprocessors should be cut as well as DSP.

I know yours covers it but regardless of the book here is my list of topics

>Electromagnetics
>Signals and Systems
>Calculus
>Control Systems
>Programming
>Basic logic class that shows the different gates etc.

I agree with your bonus topics. I went power systems myself and did a lot of indepth motor shit, power electronics, transmission, and industrial automation classes
