Complimentary major/minor for Sociology major?

I plan to chase after a career in international human rights law, working with NGO's like Amnesty International or the EU court of human rights. With that in mind, I've thought about minors/ double majors in subjects like Spanish or international studies, but am still undecided what subject would both compliment my interest in sociology and prepare me for a career in this specific field of law. (Or just law and law school in general, really). #sociology #international-humanitarian-law #human-rights #double-major #college-minor #law-school

Should I stay in college longer than a planned 4 year path to gurantee getting both of my desired majors?

I don't know the specific college that I want to attend, but for each of my top three choices I want to do a dual major in a business area and science area. The only problem: there is no overlap for possible courses (besides some basic math). I don't know whether or not to drop one of the majors, or to stay at the college a little bit longer to get both of them. #dual-major #double-major #college

How do I know if I am choosing the right major for the career path I want to take?

I am currently stuck between three different majors because they are all so similar. I know what career I want to pursue but I also know that it might take a while to get there. I want to make sure that I am choosing the right major so I can have enough versatility and not be at a stand still, or not exactly where I want, when I finally graduate college. #major #double-major

Where could one intern who is an English major?

I've been considering applying for several schools that would require internships for me to complete my degree, and I would like to take as much advantage of this opportunity as possible. I'm primarily interested in a career involving the literary arts. Are there any particular types of places that would be a good fit for an internship for me? #internships #double-major #english #literature

Is it possible to balance a double major with one major being architecture?

I'm asking this because I'm interested in architecture and engineering, but I'm also interested in a few other career paths and I'm not sure whether it's better for me to just pick one and go to college for it (since I've been told that architecture is a very time consuming major) or try and go to college for all of them. #graduate #architecture #college-student #double-major

What are the benefits of a double major when considering post-graduate education or the job market?

My name is Ben, and I'm planning on majoring in Molecular Biology, with plans on going to med school. However, because of my passion and talent in music, I am seriously considering to pursue a second degree in music. But after doing some research, I am unsatisfied with the results I have found. The results online seem very vague and obvious. Of course taking more classes means potential for longer time of graduate/increase in tuition and loss of focus/time. Of course it exposes you to new ideas and concepts. Therefore, I am still confused about whether there are tangible benefits, if any, of pursuing a double major. Therefore, my question is: What are the benefits of a double major when considering post-graduate education or the job market? Specifically, what scholarships/grants are available for double majors? Does having a double major give applicants an advantage when going into med school or competing in the job market? #biology #music #job #medicine #college-major #college-advice #double-major

Double Majoring

I hear that going to college for one major can be difficult enough. Isn't two better than one? If I wanted to pursue a career in business and law, could I major in both to be competitive within the professional field, or, should I major in business and minor in law? I feel that earning two majors shows passion and dedication, showing any hiring team in the professional field I want to go into that I am serious about my job. Should I stick to only one major and chose a minor? Or should I double major to be competitive? #majors #choosing-a-major #double-major #college-major

It is worth it to keep music in my life as I pursure college and careers?

All throughout k-12 school, music has been a big part of my life. Playing principal clarinet in numerous all-state events and solo contests throughout my high school career has been a big part of my life. However, I am probably going to pursue science in college, and I am wondering if I should keep playing at all. After all, knowing scales and etudes isn't going to help me much in a field of physics or neuroscience. Should I go with my brain and drop it, go with my heart and keep it, or do both somehow? #music #clarinet #neuroscience #science #physics #stem #double-major

Double major dilemma

As of right now, I am currently an English major finishing up my first semester in college. I really love my major(it was changed from marine science) and I'm so excited to continue on with it and see where it takes me. That being said, I am a little worried about being able to pay off my student loans due to the risk of a very low salary. Because of that, I have been debating a second major in mathematics and then also minor in actuarial science. I truly love math and think I am quite good at it. For that reason, I think I will be able to handle how different these majors are. I suppose my dilemma is knowing if this is a poor decision. To an extent, these majors will compliment each other due to the need to write proposals. However, I am curious as to whether this will hurt or help me get a job? Can I get a job focusing solely on either of the two majors? For example, can I get a job as an editor using the English side of my degree or will I be in a worse position due to the mathematics side being more prominent? I really have a passion for both of these majors, I am just so afraid of making the wrong decision.This will be a lot of work and I want it to pay off and give me a wide variety of careers to pick from. #college #career #college-major #career-counseling #english #double-major #actuarial-science #actuarial

How do I know which college is right for me?

Being a senior is harder then it looks. You have to worry about grades, scholarships, where to get money and what to wear to prom! My biggest problem is where my future would be in store. What college would be great for me since I plan to perform a double major in arts and technology communication. Should it be an expensive school? A cheap estate one? A HBCU? If anyone could answer this daunting question, I would highly appreciate it. #university #double-major #college #business #exams
