<p>My D is strong in math and science and she’d like to concentrate both engineering and economics in college. Is it better to apply to SEAS and take economy classes, or just go to GS and study both of her interested field? I was wondering how much SEAS students can take various economy classes at Columbia.</p>
<p>how old is your daughter? because I read general studies is for grown adults</p>
<p>I think she’d be better of double majoring (if she can handle it) in SEAS but Engineering should comprise of Science && Math at least</p>
<p>Did you mean CC? If she’s eligible to apply to SEAS, she’s likely not eligible to apply to GS.</p>
<p>Look here, she can do a Joint Major in Econ and OR.

<p>econ is the most common minor in seas, completing all the econ courses required for an econ major in the college isn’t difficult to do, your D wont get a second econ major/degree unless she does the college core. but if studying econ is all she wants to do, it’s straightforward (and a good combination)</p>
