Double Major with Economics!?

<p>Hey guys. So i got into UCLA with math/econ. Is there any way for me to change it and end up double majoring with a major BS from math department and economics major from econ department???</p>

<p>Can you do it? Probably.
Is it worthwhile? Probably not.</p>

<p>have you guys heard of anyone doing it? specifically econ…</p>

<p>Doing what? Majoring in math and econ. Yes I’ve heard it being done. But you can’t overlap more than 5 classes I believe, so you can’t do the Applied Math - Actuary plan or anything like that w/ econ.</p>

<p>I don’t think you can double major in the same department.</p>

<p>Math and Econ are two different departments</p>

<p>I was a math econ major. I thought about doing this, but when I spoke to someone, it became clear that it would be too hard because like binks said, 5 classes overlap can easily overlap. The math/econ program exists for a reason and it’s just as prestigious per se.</p>

<p>One thing I will say is that I finished the major way too early. It’s very short.</p>

<p>That’s what the math-econ major is for</p>
