Which is more valuable?

<p>A degree in finance or a degree in computer science?</p>

<p>Isn't it true that you do a lot of modeling in both? Programming in both?</p>

<p>I like both programming and working with investment models, so I was wondering which option would allow me to switch over to other more easily? In case I don't like finance, will it be easier for me to switch from finance to CS, or CS to finance?</p>

<p>I imagine it’s a lot easier to go from CS to finance than the other way around.</p>

<p>Well, what I meant was is it easier for a CS grad to learn basic concepts learned by finance majors, or is it easier for a finance grad to learn the basic concepts learned by CS majors?</p>

<p>And how would employers see it?</p>

<p>Ok, basically what I’m trying to ask is…</p>

<p>is “Data Mining and Analysis” a business department’s job or the computer science department’s job?</p>

<p>Get the BS.</p>

<p>Computer Science pwns</p>

<p>CS+MBA pwns more, MBA with concentration in finance.</p>
