It depends on the CS professor and university. At U of Waterloo, for example, there are two separate degrees one can get as a CS major. One that's a BMath, the other as a BCS. I studied engineering (BASc) there, and while the website may say otherwise[0], everyone recognized that the BMath was the more serious of the two degrees even if there were exceptions here and there. Anyway, all of this to say that mathematicians and computer scientists are highly related. Even more so than mathematicians and physicists. They both deal is pure, (usually) computable abstractions.
