I have a friend who majored in criminal justice and minored in psychology and he now works with mentally disturbed kids using his psych minor. I majored in business however minored in visual communications / fine art / photography and they have gotten me handfulls of web design and photography free lance projects.

It just depends what you plan on majoring and minoring in. An advertising minor for a graphic design major works great. Advertising minor for engineering doesn’t appear to do much, but who knows.

My sister plans on majoring in Sociology and minoring in advertising/marketing and graphic design… she plans on using the sociology aspect to figure out how to advertise/design towards certain groups of people. At least that’s the plan. We’ll see how it all turns out in the end.
