<p>I want to be an aerospace engineer. I love math and physics so should I double major in physics and aerospace or mechanical engineering and aerospace engineering? With the two engineering majors I can get two minors and still graduate in 4 years so money/time don't affect my decision. Which path would offer the most help in grad school and in my career?</p>
<p>decide that after your first year.
See the work load and then choose.</p>
<p>Just remember that 2 is better than 1 ;)</p>
<p>Two is not better than one in not necessarily better in engineering. If you have a double major in AE and Physics, the Physics degree will be completely ignored by companies hiring AE’s and you will be treated exactly the same as someone with just a BS in AE. Having a double major in engineering + science does not make you stand out. It’s very common to interview people with two BS degrees in engineering (usually BS Engineering + BS Math or Physics or Chemistry) because of 3/2 programs that often award dual degrees.</p>
<p>If you want to double major to make yourself stand out, AE + Business or Econ or something like that would stand out (two different types of degrees) though this is often hard to do. AE + ME would expand your reach in terms of the number of companies that will interview you, but the AE companies will ignore the ME and the ME companies will ignore the AE.</p>
