So at first I thought this degree was something along the lines of IT or IS, but I’m seeing it’s just sort of like scratching the surface of computer science or IT and some data science thrown in there. I am now somewhat regretting my choice of major.

Any of you guys here who have majored in this or who are currently in the program give me any insight if this program is worth it or not? Or should I rather pursue MIS or CS?
