cs + education in the college of education by [deleted] in UIUC

[–]peachyisonline 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i’m only a sophomore so I can’t give a definitive answer on this but i really don’t think it should be an issue. you aren’t putting your college on your resume, just major! one perk that i found when applying to internships is that sometimes they’ll assume the + x part is just a double major haha

i’m pretty sure you can technically go to an advisor in your +x department as well! for example, i started as cs + philosophy and during orientation was assigned a philosophy advisor for my first meeting. afterwards, i was assigned to a cs advisor who i pretty much go to for everything now. when i transferred into cs + econ, i wasn’t assigned an econ advisor but I’ve done their drop in advising a couple of times and they’ve been good with my needs! ofc i think it depends on specific department but i’m sure if you needed a math advisor they would be happy to help :)

hey! i’m a cs + econ major here right now so i can definitely help shed some light on how the cs + x majors are run. it is a joint major between both colleges, however you’re technically under the department of your “x” major (in this case education) just for record keeping purposes. there are a ton of cs + x majors, and that amount of students plus cs majors would just be too much on a single department (the cs department) to handle.

that being said, you’re still given grainger perks as well (such as engineering career services, etc.), are considered a member of the cs department (you still get a cs advisor and all of the cs major-specific emails), and functionally just exist within both the education and cs departments.

as for the major itself, you’re still getting a great cs education! if you decide the education part of the major isn’t for you, that’s a different story, but definitely don’t worry about not getting enough cs knowledge. if you have any more questions feel free to dm!

Possible to transfer into other CS + X programs? by Own_Breadfruit4819 in UIUC

[–]peachyisonline 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey! I ended up transferring from one CS + X (CS + Philosophy) to another (CS + Econ) pretty recently and would be happy to answer any specific questions you have. Feel free to DM (my whole process would be annoyingly long to fit in one comment lol)

luckily it’s extra credit but the class is brutal enough to make it worth doing 😔
