I'm 34 and just starting college. I have to go the community college route. I will get a degree in physics. I wonder though if I should double major in an engineering field?
It depends on your individual goals and circumstances. In some cases, double majoring can provide a competitive edge in the job market or prepare you for a specific career path. However, it can also be more challenging and time-consuming, and may not be necessary for certain career paths.
In most cases, yes. Double majoring requires taking more classes, so it may take longer to fulfill all the requirements for both majors. However, careful planning and prioritization can help minimize the impact on graduation time.
It depends on the specific requirements of your university and the majors you are interested in. Some majors may have overlapping courses or may require more credits than others, making it difficult to double major. It's important to consult with an advisor to determine if your desired double majors are feasible.
It depends on the job market and the specific majors you choose. In some fields, having a double major may make you a more attractive candidate to employers. However, in other fields, job experience and skills may be more important than having multiple majors.
Yes, you can typically drop one of your majors and still graduate with a single major. However, it's important to consult with your academic advisor and check your university's policies to ensure that you will still meet all the requirements for graduation.
