I’m looking to double major in Econ and either math or a science. I don’t want to major in Engineering and am not premed. I know that Math would probably be the most valuable with Econ, but I’m looking to explore my science options a bit more and examine the marketability of some other majors.

I know that marketability shouldn’t be the sole reason for choosing a major, but assuming interest level is equal, could anyone comment on/compare the marketability of each of the below majors a) On its own and b) When coupled with Economics

Chemistry (B.A. or B.S.)
Physics (B.A. or B.S.)
Microbiology (B.S.)
Geology (concentration in Geochemistry) (B.S.)
Ecology and Evolutionary Biology (B.S.)
Neuroscience (B.S.)
Brain and Cognitive Science (B.S.)
