Double Major: Anthropology and Chemical Engineering

<p>Do you mean to say that majoring in something with good job and career prospects is necessary for them to contribute toward your college costs?</p>

<p>Chemical engineering is usually a pretty heavy major in terms of requirements; while some anthropology courses would fill in the social studies breadth requirements for engineering majors, there may not be enough free electives to complete the rest of the anthropology major. You may want to look at web sites of schools like Clemson and USC to count up requirements for the two majors to see if all of the courses can be fit into a four year schedule.</p>

<p>You may want to look at the <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/internships-careers-employment/1121619-university-graduate-career-surveys.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/internships-careers-employment/1121619-university-graduate-career-surveys.html&lt;/a&gt; to see how different majors’ job and career prospects are. If you like math, you may want to consider applied math, statistics, or computer science instead of chemical engineering, since they tend to have fewer course requirements to leave more room for anthropology courses. And you might later find a job where statistics and/or computer science are applied to anthropology research or something like that.</p>
