<p>Hi, all. What's the best way to list a double major on a resume? </p>
<p>This is what I currently have:
Bachelor of Arts in Anthropology and East Asian Studies </p>
<p>My only concern is that the two majors look as if they could be one. Would it be better to clarify that they are separate majors by writing "Double Major" somewhere? </p>
<p>Also, I'm applying to a museum that has internships available in both the fossil AND Asian culture departments. Should I note my concentrations underneath my BA listing by saying something like: </p>
<p>Emphases on Biological Anthropology, Chinese Language and Culture</p>
<p>Is that even the proper use of the word emphases/proper use of capitalization??? I've been staring at my resume for so long that I've almost given up on it. I don't have anyone who can proofread it, so if someone would be willing to help me out, I'd really (REALLY!) appreciate it! </p>
<p>(Also, if this isn't the right forum for this sort of question, could you direct me to the proper one?) </p>
<p>Bachelor of Arts
Major: Anthropology, concentration in Biological Antropology
Major: East Asian Studies, concentration in Chinese </p>
<p>If you studied a language as part of the East Asian major, I would recommend having a section on language skills or add another line under the education section for language study.</p>
<p>Have your placement office or a professor you like look at your resume. They will have a good idea of what people are looking for. Good luck.</p>
<p>You should ask your career office about how to mention your double major to make sure that whatever you do doesn’t constitute “lying” on your resume.</p>
<p>I’d agree with MD Mom, or here’s a similar alternative version:</p>
<p>Bachelor of Arts in Anthropology and East Asian Studies (double major)
Concentrations in Biological Anthropology and Chinese Language and Culture</p>
