<p>I’m not talking about a second minor, I’m only talking about having one minor. I’ve crossed off the entrepreneurship one. The math minor at my school is 28 credits so I would still need 3-4 classes at the 400 level. It’s between that and a business minor of sorts like economics. Now I’m really considering no minor at all. I don’t want to waste my time with a minor if it’s not going to make much of a difference.</p>
<p>Global’s view of Minors - Unless the minor can be combined with courses from your major to makeup almost another major…don’t do it. Also do not just take the minimum required for a minor, take enough to make it more of a “concentration”.</p>
<p>Case(s) in point: Econ major + Finance super-minor = Econ-Finance dual major; Physics + Math super-minor = Physics/Math dual major.</p>
<p>Point to drive home: take courses that can count towards major and minor to the point that it looks like a dual major. If you cannot do that…screw the minor.</p>

<p>I know this was back in October but . . .</p>
<p>If it helps you get a job, and better yet, helps you improve your quality of work in your major then it might be worth it. I indirectly found out that professors in my department are upset when students don’t declare their minor early during their tenure (I’ll be graduating this Dec. and just declared my already completed minor this past Oct. so I fall in that category) as students because its information that shows that students are willing to take classes other than the core requirements. I’m not sure how your university does it, but mine heavily relies on declared minors to legitimize a program, especially a small program (i.e. anthropology & criminology, philosophy). If not many choose to major in said programs, then minors are next in line to advocates its staying power on campus.</p>
