<p>Will majoring in Computer Science(Software Engineering) and Civil Engineering difficult? Is it bearable? Are they closely related? Help, Please. I graduate high school in 2015, and I can't choose. I like both.</p>
<p>It will definitely be difficult depending on how much time you want to take, they aren’t all that related, and there really would be no benefit to your career.</p>
<p>If you aren’t certain which area you would prefer, apply to Universities that area strong in both programs. Begin college assuming that you will double major and choose your first-year classes accordingly. Once you’ve had more exposure to both areas, pick which one you like better to major in and drop the other one. There is not much of a career advantage to actually double major, and it would be very difficult to graduate on time with a double major. If you were going to spend extra time in college, career-wise a master’s degree would be a much better investment in time & money. </p>
<p>Double majoring simply because you like both subjects is not a smart decision. There is no reason to even further contemplate double majoring unless you can present a viable reason why majoring in both would benefit your future career.</p>
<p>Off the top of my head, I can’t think of a good reason to major in both software engineering and civil engineering.</p>
<p>What about majoring in civil engineer and minor in software??? It’s literally hard to choose.</p>
<p>What do you want to do day to day at your job? Do you want to design a bridge/ building, or manage construction, or do hydrology reports, or design roads for traffic, or design the foundation of a project, etc. Or do you want to design software/ websites (to be fair, my knowledge of what C.S. majors is very minor)? </p>
<p>Your best bet right now is to go to a school with good Civ. E and C.S. programs, take a few intro courses for both, then decide which you like best. Try talking to some Civ. Es and C.S. majors now, or once you get into school. </p>
<p>I don’t think the minor will do anything. Civil engineering jobs are not programming heavy at all. We just use the software and excel. And I don’t think you will get a C.S. job with only a minor.</p>
