Engineering (Mech/Aero) + International Relations Dual Major

<p>I have interest in the fields of both mechanical/aerospace engineering and international relations. I have the skill-sets needed for both fields, and fairly comprable degrees of interest - so I was wondering what other people think about double majoring in engineering and I.R. I'm sure majoring in both would give a pretty versatile array of career options. I would also be able to deeply explore multiple interests. I love to work with numbers and to design things, yet I also love international studies and history. By studying these two majors, I would be able to pursue both of these interests. What other benefits would come with majoring in both fields? Are there any reasons why you think this would not be a good idea?</p>

<p>Also, what colleges (in the Northeast/Mid-Atlantic area) would you recommend if I were to study both fields?</p>

<p>Thanks.</p>
