Explain College Majors and Minors to me like I’m 5 please

293 views

I’m going to college for the first time and I want to Major in Engineering, didn’t realize I had to choose a minor as well and was thinking about Political Science. Do these 2 pair well as far as long term career benefits go? I’m oblivious to this whole college world…

EDIT: Aerospace Engineering, the Astronautical Branch. Sorry for not including in the original post. I’m just a guy who loves space/spaceflight and finally decided I wanted to do something about it by going to school and try to make a difference in the field. My ultimate dreams/aspirations are to work at NASA.

Thank you all for the quick responses! All of them have helped me a lot already! To sum me up: I’m 30, I love space/spaceflight, finally decided to do something about it and go to school. But I wanted something to back up my Engineering Major, rather than just be a fallback. An engineer with knowledge of politics seems they could make a real difference in the Space Industry and that’s all I want to do is make a difference.
