Hi, I would like to ask how I can choose my majors or minor for future plan
I would like to be Data Analyst at financial or insurance base in all over the world
and I am considering which majors will be more benefit and I can have more interest
So here is my thought:
I would like to study majors two of Economics, Statistics, or Mathematics
Also I am very interested in music (I am playing piano pretty well??) so I would like to study music in college level (minor)
Two majors and one minor are impossible??
Which study do I have to give up
and if I choose a major, two majors or minor, what study do you recommend me in Master’s Degree??
Being a data analyst requires you to have good quantitative skills, and I think an exposure to undergraduate level statistics would be highly beneficial, in case you decide to major in Economics.
Many econ majors I’ve known have either majored in Mathematics or have taken a bunch of math and stats courses to supplement their Economics degree. Most graduate programs in Economics require you to have taken a lot of math.
It’s really up to you and your own schedule and whether you think you have the time and money for your curriculum. Math and music isn’t uncommon - although two majors AND a minor sounds time-consuming, but of course, that depends on your circumstances and school.
If you decide to go graduate school (per se, for Economics), you need a lot of math.
If you decide to go graduate school for Mathematics, you obviously need a lot of math.
If you decide to go graduate school for Statistics, you need a lot of math AND enough Economics AND maybe some computer-related courses.
