Northwestern also has the 5-year double degree program with Bienen and either Weinburg, Medill, or McCormick. That's a special program, IMO.

Minor in transportation and logistics
Its pretty much a combination of economics, civil and industrial engineering along with some very transport specific, applied, case study type courses

Jazz studies is a gem at nu. they just restructured it and are bringing in a bunch of faculty from all over the world. The director (Victor Goines) is commuting from New York where he plays with Live at Lincoln Center. Faculty of the caliber of Peter Martin, piano, and Carlos Henriquez, bass will be teaching next year.

For kids interested in business:
-MMSS (mentioned above)
-BIP (Business institutions program, a minor)
-Kellogg certificates (in financial economics and managerial analytics)
-4 year BA/MA Economics program.

I have a friend who's doing all of the above, plus a double major Economics BA and a second minor in math.
