    Umm. Well it depends. They're mostly codependent.

      Philosophy is far more important since it speaks to the nature of reality, morality, what we *should* do...the fact that most of these things are either dependent on philosophical development or spun off from such demonstrates this.

        Currently

        Maths not,
        mathematicians are important, as trainers, to give engineers, chemists, architects etc etc the math elements they need to do their job, but maths alone not..

        Physics are past their prime...

        Economics is about as scientific as astrology..

        Computer science and biology/medicine are the most worthwhile nowadays.. the sciences of the XXI century

              I like your ascending priority list.

                      Eh. Most of them are really variations on similar themes, or different applications of the same skills.

                          Math.

                          And the question is: Which is more worthwhile.

                          Its the base of everything in that poll...except for medicine, if you dont count volumes of fluid, quantites/mix of medication and such.

                          Spec.

                            Yeah, I spent the day learning how to design basic microwave frequency components and one just can't avoid seeing Schopenhauer in every equation.
