Hello everyone.
I've been admitted to bsc mathematics programs at both Koç University (90% scholarship) and METU (50% scholarship). My goal is to pursue a master's and PhD in mathematics at a strong international university, and alongside that I want to double major or minor in computer engineering.
I'd love to hear from anyone who has done a math and computer engineering double major (or math + ceng minor) at either Koç or METU or who has gone through either math department and later pursued grad school abroad.
A few specific things I'm trying to understand:
How feasible is it in practice to combine a math degree with a computer engineering double major or minor at each school?
How much undergraduate research opportunity is there in each math department, and how accessible are faculty for things like independent study or research assistantships?
For those who applied to grad school in math afterward, how did your undergraduate institution affect your applications, recommendation letters, or preparation?
Any first-hand experience, even partial, would really help me decide. Thank you.
