Is a triple minor bad?

College Majors Science Majors

<p>Alright, so I'm a sophomore computer science major at University of Alabama. I'm sticking with the major, but I also have a major interest in science, so much that a job working for NASA or some large science/technology company is much more attractive to me than working for a software company.</p>

<p>I have figured out that it is impossible for me to double major, but it is possible for me to triple minor in math, physics, and astronomy.</p>

<p>My question is, is a triple minor scoffed at? Will it ruin chances for me to get a great job? Or will it help?</p>

<p>Employers rarely care about minors, so 3 minors = triple don’t care.</p>

<p>Suggestion: Dual major in CS & Physics with your physics electives in astronomy. Your “math maturity” will be pretty much proven by those two majors alone…no need minor in math.</p>

<p>You will need to make clear your career goals because CS+Physics could lump you into quantum computing.</p>
