Advice on what to major in college?

<p>What would be the most suitable major if I wish to focus on engineering mechanics/theoretical and applied mechanics?
I heard that it's a field of applied math, rather than physics, so which one should I major in?
I was first thinking of engineering physics, but in retrospect, it hardly has anything to do with classical mechanics as it focuses on what physicists are researching on now.</p>

<p>thanks.</p>

<p>Would mechanical engineering be suitable?</p>

<p>Or you could major in something else and take the advanced mechanics courses from the physics and mechanical engineering departments as electives.</p>
