<p>Hello, I am a student wanting to double major in linguistics and computer science. I decided on linguistics due to my own personal interest in linguistics but I knew it wasn't super marketable on its own, and the few jobs that do exist for it aren't something I want for a career. I also have a strong interest in computers and was thinking about doing something math-related, so Comp Sci seemed like a perfect second major that I would enjoy and I'd also have more job security and more money. </p>
<p>That said, I'm not sure exactly what I want to do with these degrees when I graduate. The first thing people jump to when they hear my double major is computational linguistics which I'm not particularly interested in on its own. I've heard of (and considered) a few other options that would utilize both degrees, such as artificial intelligence jobs and search engine optimization to name a couple. I'm not 100% sure what other options are there for this double major, though I know it is a somewhat popular choice, and I realize a fair number of Comp Sci may not know the answer either but I thought I'd put it out there. And I may just do something in computer science and not linguistics, but I'm just exploring my options. </p>
<p>I appreciate your thoughts and opinions!</p>
