I want to get into Machine Learning, I am coming from very little knowledge and need help with choosing a major/unit selection. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Okay so, as of next year I am transfering to a double degree(currently in IT), Bachelor of Mathematics & Bachelor of Information Technology (Computer Science Major, but in reality, it primarily programming).

Now, I recently and over the next few months I'll be playing catchup with mathematics as my math background is weaker than I would like ( I am coming from a Security / Pentesting Background), However I need to make a major selection now to tell my course coordinator for the transfer to happen.

I will be taking some ai/machine learning units as electives.

Should I take the Statistical Science Major?

Any other input would be amazing, as I am extremely noob when it comes to ML and mathematics in general. I know I have a bunch of hard work, hell I have to catchup on highschool math let alone the rest of it, but I have always been a pretty good self study.
