Possible Career Path

Hello all, I'm going to be a prospective co2026 student at NYU CAS that plans on majoring in CS/DS/Econ with a finance minor and I was wondering what possible career choices I have ahead of me assuming I plan on pursuing grad school. If I plan on working in a finance related career, should I transfer to Stern for the better networking opportunities or stay in CAS? If finance isn't the way to go with what I'm planning to study, what other possible choices do I have? For context, CS and DS is a joint major at NYU and I plan on doubling that with Econ. What do you guys think?
