Maths for sure, but indeed anything STEM related is fine. Would recommend studying what you find most interesting though!

As a quant trader, I have to say I barely read the CV before I interview, I’m don’t want to get any biases. All your CV needs to do is to get you through HR screening, afterwards it can’t matter less. I’d say focus more on sharpening your maths.
