<p>What are the best double majors to compliment German in terms of career opportunities?</p>
<p>I’ve always heard BUSINESS and a foreign language</p>
<p>Depends on what you want to do in lines of German. Like German and education ( teacher), German and etc…</p>
<p>I’m not very interested in business or anything science/medicine related. I was thinking more education, academia, research, law, international…</p>
<p>History, International Relations, Political Science, Sociology, Anthropology. Just throwing some out there. At my school you have to do extra language courses for IR anyways. </p>
<p>If you did History, IR or Poli Sci you could take courses on WW2 and the Holocaust if it’s offered. I’d do that. </p>
<p>I wanted to take German so bad but it is not offered. I really want to go to Germany and study the Holocaust even further.</p>
<p>Good luck.</p>
<p>Just thought I’d throw an idea your way …
If you are interested in academia, you could take another language. For example, beginning Russian has opened my mind to new grammatical concepts that aren’t as apparent in my other languages: German, English, and Spanish. I am planning to work in academia as well (comparative literature), so it is important that I have at least a reading knowledge of a few languages.
Depending on the subject you would like to teach and research for a living, knowledge of another language could really improve your understanding of grammar in general.</p>
<p>Also, if you have no desire to pursue another language, I have heard that history compliments a language major well.</p>
