Double major History and Computer Science?

Is it possible to double major in two unrelated topics, such as History and Computer Science?





History is usually in the Arts school.


Computer Science is usually in the Engineering school.





Is it wise to major in two unrelated topics?





Both interest me. But I was wondering if it would be good or not.





Thanks.

Double major History and Computer Science?
How long do you want to be in school? Sometimes a double major in similar areas might have a few courses that overlap, but if you have two entirely different areas you would have to meet all of the requirements for each major. A double major might mean another 3 semesters or so, depending upon the college's requirements.





The computer science degree would get you a job quicker than the history major.





Hope that helps!
Reply:Ask yourself, "why are you attending college?"





If the answer is, "to study things that interest me" then go for any/all majors that interest you.





If the answer is "to get a job," focus only on classes that help you get that job. After you have that job, you can get a masters degree in subjects that you enjoy.
