if my school allows it, is a double major in software engineering + statistics or math a thing?

Do you mean computer science you Pajeet piece of shit? Because: software engineering =/= computer science, also: software engineering < computer science.

i dunno why this faggot just switched the topic to cs. cs does not cover what you need to do software engineering

It does if you're taught properly, and take your time to study programming too, which will be essential for application.
It's not my fault if you get taught shit.
I just wish /sci/ to keep their mouth shut, for just one fucking minute, you don't know what you're going on about, you need to keep quiet. Do you finally understand, /sci/? Do you?

You are a stupid person for asking us this question as if we are the final authority. Go ask your school instead and if you want it, try to figure out how to make it happen schedule-wise.

Double major in Math + Statistics and learn software engineering on your own.

No, you spastic, re-read what I put:
>It does if you're taught properly, and take your time to study programming too, which will be essential for application.
Do I need to break it down for you without shitty reading comprehension?
Okay, I'll do it for you, baba.
>It does if you're taught properly [in computer science]
>and take your time to study programming too, which will be essential for application [of that knowledge to software engineering].
Oh wow, you should've kept your mouth shut, YET AGAIN! Why don't the uninformed, retarded brainlets of /sci/ just shut their fucking mouths?

Also, it's better to be qualified in computer science in general, than just one facet of it.

where are you going to learn all the project management, etc.?

My impression of 'software engineering' is that it's largely a hamfisted attempt to capture the intuitions of a good software developer through the creation of overly formal guidelines and specifications dealing with how to make interchangeable components in popular business languages that largely serves to allow someone to say that they have earned an engineering certification.

It's a half-assed gestalt of a proper field, like most engineering qualifications.

>> No.9970381

>>9970344
ok but if software engineering is anything like an analog of engineering, then someone doing a degree in it should come out having learned how to , and already practiced, managing a team (of people you don't get along with) to do take a set of vague desires to a specification through to a completed on time design, whereas a cs student has learned theory and practised how to submit answers to textbook questions through an online submission form

A computer scientist knows more about how a computer actually functions than you, faggot. Don't even try and deny it.

>A computer scientist knows more about how a computer actually functions than you
this is certainly true (and would still be if I was a SE which I think you assume) but I don't see any way that this fact relates to the thread.

The fact being, unless he also means COMPUTER SCIENCE, as in the theory behind why the application of software engineering functions. It doesn't belong on this board, it belongs on /g/.
