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

289 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.

Majors and minors are areas of focused study. You might major in History but you might minor in Education if you plan to be a teacher. You might major in criminal justice, but minor in chemistry or something if you intend to study forensics in law enforcement.
