Switch to applied math from engineering?

College Majors Math/Computer Science Majors
1

<p>I am currently a mechanical engineering major and i am considering switching to an applied math/stat major. From there i would look into possibly finance, economics, computer science or a STEM teaching minor to compliment it. Would i lose a lot of job security by leaving engineering? Is applied math a bad idea?</p>

<p>Thanks in advance for any help.</p>
