Hey guys
Is an Applied Computer Science degree worth it? Does it have the same rep as the general CS one?
I am going to uni this september and I have been accepted into the computer science programs at 3 universities. The thing is the name of the CS program at the most prestigious uni is called BSc (Hons) Applied Computer Science. Would that be a disadvantage when applying for work? I checked the course info and it is accredited but I am still woried.
Thank you

Seriously don't waste your time. Go straight for Maths, and come over here to MIT if you can get in. The industry is moving way too fast to waste time and if you are very solid in maths then you can do anything a CS major could.
Do you really want to spend $1800/credit and six weeks to learn how to write an array?
Then go for your MS in Applied Mathematics. See you at the AI lab.
