<p>Double major will increase your options for employment. Depend what is the other major, it may also help you later to a different position. </p>
<p>Are you planning majors in two engineering or engineering + something else?</p>
<p>My son is in his 2nd year this coming fall, majoring in System Engineering and Economics. He needs 7 more classes for the economic major, one of which is required by both major. Since he has AP, he will finish in 4 year and took a extra class the 1st semester and may need another one later.</p>
<p>We he graduates, he will have an option to work in engineering or business. Even if he stay in engineering, the business portion of the other major may help in into a management position.</p>
