<p>Is it biomedical engineering? I read that somewhere. If so, I find it kinda exciting that our generation's best and brightest have their eyes on a field that has actual potential to make a difference in the way we live. Idk, I'm just curious to know.</p>
<p>At Yale? I"m pretty sure History is the biggest major amongst graduates.</p>
<p>usually History, English and Biology are the top three.</p>
<p>social sciences (not including history)</p>
<p>It’s Poli Sci, followed by History and Econ:</p>

<p>That’s interesting to see, because I would have made the same prediction T26E4 did.</p>
<p>English and Biology are down to ## 5 and 6, behind Psychology at #4. (The three of them are virtually tied if you smush together English and Literature, and Biology and MB&B.) Well over half of last year’s graduating class had one of those 6 as a first major! And and the only other major with more than 26-27 people was design-your-own. I wonder if other colleges are as concentrated as this?</p>
<p>Biomedical engineering was the most popular engineering major. But only 56 people – about 4% of the graduating class – had any kind of engineering major.</p>
<p>(EDIT) Interesting: Harvard is almost exactly as concentrated in the same 6 majors, taking all of its many biology majors as one major for purposes of comparability. And it had only 35 engineering graduates, in a much bigger class. The University of Chicago, too, except that in its case Psychology would only make it into the top 6 majors if you combined separate majors in General Psych and Counseling Psych, and even then it would barely beat out Math.</p>
