Other Minor in Cs vs Minor in Busieness

AI Thread Summary
Choosing a minor in computer science may offer better job opportunities compared to a minor in business, especially for those studying physics. The relevance of the minor largely depends on future career plans, with technology skills being increasingly valuable in the job market. A background in information systems can complement a business major effectively. Ultimately, the decision should align with individual career goals and interests. Prioritizing technology skills is recommended for enhanced employability.
