I’m a freshman at UMass Amherst, currently a computer science major but probably going to switch to linguistics. I would like to minor in something else as well, what kind of a combination would be most marketable to a potential employer?
Computer science is the first one that comes to mind, which should also go well preparation-wise if you’re coming from a CS major.
Other than that, what are you interested in? Is there a particular subfield of linguistics that interests you? Or just a random field that you happen to find interesting, not necessarily related to linguistics at all?
