Currently a junior at BU, double CS/Math major. I would be very grateful on any course selection advice you have to offer for my last two terms next year. I am already familiar with statistics from online courses, so I'm not looking to take it (unless people think it's a good idea)

Taking this term:
Analysis of Algorithms
Real Analysis II
Numerical Analysis I
Stochastic Methods of Operation Research
Machine Learning

Have taken for Math:
Multivar. Calc
Linear Algebra
Differentials
Discrete Math
Abstract Algebra
Probability
Real Analysis I
Methods of Operation Research (Simplex method, convex programming, etc)

For CS:
Data Structures
Combinatorial Structures
Computer Systems
Distributed Systems
Concepts of Programming Languages

Other:
Macro/Micro
Physics

Any suggestions? One of the things I'm thinking about taking is Data Mining.
 
I think some courses like ODE and PDE would be helpful. And maybe complex analysis.

Other courses in applid math like optimization will be a good choice, too.

Actually, I think data mining is a stat course. Besides, I believe some stat courses like time series can strengthen your background.
