I am a college student currently majoring in computer science. I am
interested in cryptography. Would a double major in mathematics be the key
in me getting a job in computer security field? I automatically get a minor
in mathematics, but wondering if staying an extra year for math major as
well would really help me. thanks! ~Brooks~
