Hello all,
I was wondering what the overall effectiveness of a double major in Computer Science and Cybersecurity would be. I have went back and forth between both areas of study for some time now. Difficulty does not really concern me, unless if the course load would be ridiculously overwhelming. I will be attending SEMO (Southeast Missouri State University) on a full tuition scholarship, so the issue of keeping my GPA above 3.5/4.0 will eventually arise. In my understanding, there will be quite a bit of overlap in the courses for the majors of Computer Science and Cybersecurity, but would it actually be worth it to spend the time to receive both bachelor’s degrees?
P.S. - The Computer Science program at SEMO IS accredited by the ABET.
Answers are much appreciated,
Bryton
