Expecting Too Much?

<p>Music and math probably is a doable double major, but that can be a tight fit, which would leave little room for free electives (though some breadth requirements not fulfilled by music and math would give limited room to explore). Other sciences may be harder fit in as a double major with music, due to more required courses and time consuming lab courses. Also, biology and chemistry would not really do much to improve job and career prospects ((applied) math, physics, statistics, computer science, or economics would help).</p>

<p>Perhaps major in one and minor in the other would give more “breathing room” in the schedule?</p>
