<p>For a good part of junior year and senior year I have been knocking my head around on whether I should major in Film/video studies and minor in cs or the reverse. After a while, the thought of majoring in both of them became more prominent but kind of scares me because I hear a lot to usually major in things that overlap which these majors do not. The college I plan on making this choice is George Mason University. Opinions?</p>
<p>FILM studies? What in carnation is that? You can sit around and watch movies after you graduate with your CS degree.</p>
<p>Yeah, it the name gives it an entirely different meaning. Basically, its the equivalent of learning how to make movies at film school without the heavy debt. Also, thanks for commenting :)</p>
<p>It’s not impossible, but why do it? If it delays your graduation of 4 years, it’s definitely not worth it. Keep in mind, while you take film studies courses, your CS peers will take more CS classes, technical electives, etc.</p>
<p>Yeah, I’ve taken into consideration of the possibility of my graduation being delayed and not being able to take more or any technical electives but I’m passionate about both things. I think I could live with those things but I’ve decided that if I can’t handle both of them I would just do a major in CS and a minor in Film Studies. Thanks for the comment.</p>
<p>Speak to an adviser at the school. They should be able to tell you whether it is doable.</p>
