<p>UCLA recommends a minor for students who are majoring in statistics. For the stats majors out there, what would be a good minor?</p>
<p>I’ve considered accounting but it seems really intensive, and I’m not that interested in it. Econ/polisci minors are unavailable. </p>
<p>I’ve also considered Education, since I want to eventually be a college professor, but it isn’t that related to statistics. I want a career in statistics before starting to teach.</p>
<p>If you want to be a college professor, you should take at least enough math to minor in it.</p>
<p>You could definitely do a math major… or a math minor…</p>

<p>Almost the same prereqs as a Stats major. </p>
<p>I’m pretty sure that you can take major-related classes that will fulfill both your major and minor at the same time.</p>
<p>This may be unorthodox, but how about English?</p>
<p>You’ll get practice in careful reading and clear writing. It’s a useful skill in business and academia.</p>
<p>^second that. Minor in something that trains the other part of your brain. Try social science (Poli Sci, Sociology, Econ, Anthro)</p>
