I'm graduating in Industrial Engineering with a Data Science specialization (heavily focused on stats, OR, ML, deep learning, NLP, LLMs, and databases ...), applying for Al/ML/DS. My university transcript only shows 'Industrial Engineering' though, with no mention of the specialization. Do you think not having a typical CS degree will hold me back significantly for those kinds of jobs? Especially if they check the transcript where only industrial engineering is mentioned
