Is dual majoring a meme?

It depends highly on the dual major and what length it adds to your degree.

For my degree, standard bachelor with 1 major is 3 years.

You can double major in another business major and it is still only 3 years.

You can add law as a dual degree (ie. 2 bachelors) and bring it up to 5.5 years

If you are double majoring and your second major is something stupid like journalism, history, marketing, administration, HR, Global business etc. then you are just wasting your time. If your double is in something like economics, finance, accounting or an unrelated but useful STEM field it might carry more weight.

What about combining Statistics and Comp Sci as dual majors?

Is it a good idea to duel degree in Law and Software Engineering? I have a passion for both and I can't decide.

I don't know enough about these fields to say for sure, if they are both good individually but also tie in together it could be beneficial, yes.
>>1557230
These are both very difficult fields and unless you are very smart you will most likely either fail or graduate with a very low GPA. Why don't you pursue one of them and do some minor subjects in the other to decide if you genuinely like it or not, and then look at going back for a masters or post-grad degree.

accounitng finance?

Would businesses administration and communication be good? I would probably pursue a masters in Business Administration, but I think for someone who wants to start in a sales position and work my way up the corporate ladder, that's a pretty good combination, right?

>>1557200
Yes. Just get a masters instead of wasting time on two bachelors.

Waste of time. Just pick one major and nail it.

I majored in history and then freaked out and double majored in econ with about a year overlap in classes. It served me well but being a super senior and graduating 2 terms late was kinda weird. I had to make all new friends but then immediately leave them behind.

With my econ degree I got a decent entry level analyst job, and with my history degree I can write and not be totally uncultured.

Get A degree to show you're not a dumb fuck. The rest of your growth will come from your ability to deliver in the real world, NOT another piece of paper. Don't waste your time and money. In most cases, college is already turning into a shit investment these days, albeit required for certain fields(like teaching).

Definitely a meme. If you want breadth, take electives, maybe even minor in something.

Get into the workforce ASAP. Look around you. You'll be surrounded by people less ambitious as you. Go well above them. No piece of paper can match that.

>>1557218
I feel it would be safer to add either Statistics or Comp Sci to another like econ finance or accounting, as combining the two might not get a synergistic effect life you see with the anon above you.

Also I hear statistics is a worthwhile pursuit on it's own because you can apply it to so many different fields

Which of those combinations would be best at getting me a career in finance?

>>1557808
I tend to disagree. Very few if any college age students know what they are good at or passionate about, specialising early can leave you with very few exit opportunities and pidgeon you into a career you turn out to hate. I wasted 5 years on a specialist degree that I ended out hating only to have to return to uni to study something else, since there's no other opportunities in specialist degrees. When you are young and early in your career you do not want to go narrow.
