the type of science doesn't matter.

I would have thought Arms would be a good choice. Its slightly heavier on DEX than it is on EGO. Here is a weighted list of what each item type from each craft offers as far as stats go

Science is awesome for DEX/EGO. That's what I've noticed. In the end the differences aren't huge though. Also as noticed, the "type" is for flavor, not function. In theory at least.

well science does seem the way forward, but can someone explain what the specialisations are all about, how do they affect the overall outcome of my build?

they don't. they're purely for flavor.
