here we only have the classic engineerings

mechanical, computer, electrical, chemical and civil

in a way the university was cheap so

in a way that's why i want to do the PhD

to specialize

also stem people laugh at polsci and sociology but don't even understand how fkn mathy that shit is

also i like knowledge so

makes your cs degree look like you could fail algebra in middle school and be fine

@Kaytee kek

i thought CS was serious shit

cs really doesn't have you doing much math tbh

it's its own thing and i see it related more closely to philosophy than maths

I have heard if you dont do CS on the graduate level you have failed doe.. idk how right is that so

you're kinda just making really complex logical proofs with special computer syntax

on graduate CS?

cs in general

it feels way more like undergrad phil than undergrad maths

less reading about historical figures i guess

you don't have to attach some specific catholic monk's name to a problem or proof

also i kinda feel like a couple ethics courses should be a gen ed requirement

in place of "pick a humanities!", ethics specifically

forcing people to actually think about the implications of the shit they think and why they feel that way in the first place is super important and would nip a lot of stupid shit in the bud

It's already required. Turns out professors are people with bias and want to encourage thier brand if stupid shit.

not "Ethics in computer science", general ethics courses, and a couple of em

should try to squeeze all the different schools of ethics into one semester, you don't have time to explore them

If by ethics you mean logic then yes

God, I wish I were them

_pets kaytee_

i mean like teach people about deontology and consequentialism mostly

My KZ ATES fell apart yesterday

maybe an aside about how virtue ethics is garbage

Yeah, this is a terrible idea.

consequentialism could really be several classes to itself

You are describing what is already happening ineffectivly.

But more of it.

i dunno, my uni didn't have any requirements like that, and to my knowledge still doesn't

@Kaytee I definitely think the more rational side of.ethics need to be taught but forcing people to take it makes it pointless. You can't legislate moral change.

@Matthew I'm thinking about death.

And drinking too much cider.

Apparently CS has philosophy components, I'd be set - been taking philosophy classes at school for the past 2 years
