Comp Sci Minor Question

<p>Hey guys:</p>

<p>So I am determiend to major in Comp Sci at UMD! (yay me :) )</p>

<p>anyway-</p>

<p>I have had a deep interest in Astronomy (no courses were offered at my school :( ). So I'm basically using that as most of my physical lab requirements (and advanced course requirements).</p>

<p>Turns out, I can qualify to get a minor in Astronomy!</p>

<p>Now for the question:</p>

<p>WILL that mean anything? I know some comp sci ppl minor in physics, but in all honest, I really don't have THAT much of an interest in physics (AP Physics got me interested in Astronomy...ironically).</p>

<p>So will getting that minor benifit me in anyway? or will it just be some worthless add on?</p>

<p>The fact that you have a minor is pretty much worthless. However if you are applying for a job in which the classes you took for your minor is useful, then those classes would be of some use.</p>
