<p>Am I screwed if I want to switch majors in ERC? I declared anthro as my major, but I expect my major to change at least once at UCSD. </p>
<p>What if I wanted to switch to something like Cognitive Science, or a field of Biology? Would all the MMW requirements prevent me from graduating in four years?</p>
<p>its really easy to change your major. u do it online. but, its harder to get into impacted majors, like bio. check [enrollment</a> management](<a href=“http://www-biology.ucsd.edu/undergrad/enrollmentmanagement.html]enrollment”>http://www-biology.ucsd.edu/undergrad/enrollmentmanagement.html) for more info. mm, if you’re determined to finish in 4 years i’m sure u can. just talk to ur adviser to set up a plan. the average time it takes to graduate is 4yrs and a quarter. it may be longer if u decide to double major or change your major way too many times.</p>
<p>No, you’re not screwed. Most people do their GEs in their first two years or so, and then start on their major courses. Therefore, for your first two years you can take GEs and electives and just test the waters - see what you’re interested in. Then, you declare a major by junior year. As long as you don’t change your major like April through Junior year, for example, you’ll be fine.</p>
<p>I might add that biology majors are impacted, therefore it will be extremely extremely difficult to declare a biology major. [Impacted</a> Majors](<a href=“http://www.ucsd.edu/current-students/academics/majors-minors/impacted-majors.html]Impacted”>http://www.ucsd.edu/current-students/academics/majors-minors/impacted-majors.html)</p>
<p>Thanks guys…I know that the first two years are just GE’s, but since there are so many GE’s for ERC (mostly focused on the humanities), wouldn’t it be very hard for say, an engineer to graduate on time? Wouldn’t he or she be way behind on math/science courses?</p>
<p>So in a nutshell, would it not be that big of a problem if I majored in a science/math at ERC?</p>
