1）Give your suggestions.

2）Explain the reasons.

3）Other recommendation.

Dear Wangcai,

You have asked me for my advice concerning/regarding whether you should study history or computer science at university, and I will try to make some useful/practical/conducive suggestions/proposals/recommendations.

You must keep in mind that, above all, your university training is a preparation for your future career.

Of course, I would recommend that you keep up your reading of history in your spare time.
