Can I double major in engineering and computer science?

Students may earn a double major in Electrical Engineering and Computer Science and Engineering. A double major in EE and CSE may be achieved with as few as six additional courses. The following list shows the required courses that are not common between the EE and CSE majors.

What does your degree say if you double major?

Students who double major earn one degree in two academic disciplines. The credit total typically remains the same as for a single-topic degree (at least 120 credits for a bachelor’s), and students who plan their studies carefully may not need to spend additional time in school to complete a double major.

Can you switch into engineering?

Every year, hundreds of students apply to change their majors to join the UCLA Samueli School of Engineering or to switch their major to another engineering discipline within the school, while only a few dozen leave their engineering major. This fall, nearly 90 students applied for a major switch to engineering.

Is double major useful?

It could lead to more job opportunities and higher earnings. A study published by Cambridge University Press found that students who double major in business and a STEM field typically earn more than those with just one major. You’ll get a more well-rounded education and a unique skill set you can use in your career.

Can I double major in Computer Science and engineering?

You will have two advisors and your college will assume that your first major is your primary major unless you notify them otherwise. Note that CS majors in the College of Engineering cannot double major with the ISST (Information Science, Systems, and Technology) major.

Can a CS major double major with an ISST major?

Note that CS majors in the College of Engineering cannot double major with the ISST (Information Science, Systems, and Technology) major. The Engineering College has official minors that are reflected on a student’s university transcript following graduation.

How do I double major in college?

Close consultation with field offices and advisors is imperative. The process for declaring a double major varies from college to college, but the first step is to consult with both field offices and then fill out whatever paperwork your college requires to make the double major official.

Can I major in two different majors at the same time?

For more information on the Engineering Minors, see the Engineering Handbook section on Engineering Minors. It is also possible to choose a second major from a different college. This is called the concurrent degree option. For example, an Engineering CS Major (who obtains a BS) can obtain a BA in Mathematics.
