If you like the theory of computing and thinking like a computer scientist, aka computational systems and algorithms, then a degree in computer science makes sense. It has two sides, a logic/math background and an experimental side (systems building). It also blurs with math, physics, statistics at the edges where you see cross collaboration. Computer scientists like to take things from different fields and push them to extreme scale. Deep learning is one example. Graphical models are another (taken from Bayesian stats) and applied to graphs. But in some sense a liberal arts degree is more useful.
