Honestly, don’t be too concerned with the stereotype. Choose your major based on what you like, not what others think. I was given a few wary glances and shocked looks when I went home for Christmas vacation and announced that I was switching from course 6 to 14/15, but eventually everyone got over it.

To answer your question: course 14 doesn’t really have the same stereotype. In fact, since it’s so highly quantitative, a lot of people just view it as applied mathematics (which, essentially, it is).
