<p>Hi</p>
<p>I was wondering how it works with doing a double major at CIT with another subject for instance in my case business? Is there a great difference in course load or is it possible to integrate the subjects to minimize overlapping? It would be great to hear from someone who has done it.</p>
<p>Thanks</p>

<p>i have no idea too. Can anyone else add how the course load is for biomedical engineering since thats another major ur forced to double with?</p>
<p>As a parent with kid in CIT; I would first concentrate on getting through the first semester. You were probably top academic dog in your HS but as a CMU freshman,you will be the puppy. Worry about your primary academics, having fun, exploring the realms, before delving into 2 major. Freshmen can't even declare a major until end of the freshman year.</p>
<p>The level of work will be a couple notches higher than what you are used to now.</p>
<p>Just a note, biomedical engineering is designed to double with any traditional CIT major (Mech E, Civ E, Chem E, ECE) without any overloading. A minor in business is more feasible than a double major, and if you have good grades you can enter the B.S. engineering/MBA program they offer</p>
<p>so can u do biomed + minor in business?</p>
<p>Maybe, it'd be a ridiculously tight fit. I'm attempting to do Mech E/Biomed and a Robotics minor and it's looking pretty hard:)</p>
<p>You can't do a biomed + minor in business. That would be an overload according to the CIT catalog page 100 something, although it is possible to take a CIT designated minor with the public policy and biomed double major programs, hence robotics, and all of that fun stuff. I was thinking of doing a double major in engineering and financial mathematics... but that's for the future.</p>
<p>You can minor in business. You'll just have to overload, which requires above a 3.0 QPA. It can be done, but as I said before, it will be very very tight</p>
