Hi, thank you so much for your reply! I have found that astrobiology is known to be a very interdisciplinary field with it involving people from areas of astronomy, geology, chemistry, biology, and physics. I feel that it would be very helpful to study two of these areas in college, however, for a biology major I would have to give up astronomy/astrophysics due to the nature of the major and its requirements at my college- this is why I am considering a major in astronomy and minor in biology. So I guess my next question is, would it be possible to get a master’s degree in biology after minoring in it (especially if I write an honors thesis in astrobiology or take extra biology courses before my master’s program)?
