Yes, absolutely. Plenty of luminaries in computer science don't have actual CS degrees.
- draker 11y agoI would think many computer scientists without a CS degree would still hold a degree in a field that would provide a solid basis for CS research (engineering or mathematics, possibly other sciences that require higher maths to be completed). There are probably a few that have little to no classical education but these exceptions are likely outliers.
