<p>I plan to major in mechanical engineering. Is it worth it to take the extra classes and minor in business? Do you think the work load will just be too much for anyone to handle?</p>
<p>Where are you going to study? Workload varies from school to school...</p>
<p>either virgnia tech or northeastern</p>
<p>I'd suggest you contact the schools & ask them. They would have a lot more insight about how students have done who have tried to combine these in their programs.</p>
<p>Even if you don't minor in Business, you could benefit from - and might enjoy - taking selected Business classes. You could also wait until you've worked in the field a couple of years and then go for an MBA. There are those who consider this a great combination. You can see where your career is headed and have a better idea of whether the business degree would interest/benefit you.</p>
