If you\u2019re weighing two subjects of interest but can\u2019t make a decision, you\u2019re able to declare a major, which would be your primary area of study, as well as a minor, or secondary subject. Or give them equal billing and go for a double major. Whatever path you envision, you\u2019ll have choices to accommodate you along the way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Not sure which courses you need to enrol in to complete the requirements for your degree?
