I'm a student of University of Waterloo

I created this account approximately 1 year ago, but did not use it very frequently. I will begin to study at University of Waterloo this fall as a student in mathematics department. My dream is to work at some PE companies, but I don't know what specific major should I take. In University of Waterloo, we have a lots of majors in mathematics department, for example Actuarial Science, Mathematical Finance etc. Could some tell me what major could be more helpful if I want to break into PE please? Thank you in advance!
