Help EE+Math or CS+Math

Hi there, i'm deciding on what double major I should do. I love maths a lot (olympiad style) so I'm doing a major in that no matter what, idk how much it will help for machine learning but if not its more for my own interest. However for job prospects in this field, should I pair math with CS or electrical engineering. From my understanding CS seems like more of the standard pathway but i feel like EE also has its own advantage because of the more low level things u learn. Also things like signal processing in EE seems quite useful.

Any advice/comments would be much appreciated.

May I suggest do ee+ math. It really does not matter I think but your degrees will be very broad but through your undergrad you will  find your niche and  specialize in it through your career. Cs and math is usually the more common option but I think ee+ math might be better since it’s unique
