What are we studying, drug production?

Private equity would be my guess. I'm not sure which is worse.

Econ.

so usually when I put down on resumes what my degree was, I'll switch between Business and Computer Science, usually the latter which was my minor.

You do realize that's fraud, right?

This is only if there is a drop down box with predefined choices and no "other" option. Plus, E-Commerce is a cross between Business and Comp Sci.

[Torie]

My BA was in Modern & Contemporary History.

How is that defined?  Isn't the term "contemporary history" rather oxymoronic?

Good man. I'm a minor.

It's the present that just became the past.  There is always lots of new material to study.

[fezzyfestoon]

Economics. I learned an ass-load, but I discourage anyone from heading down a path of such frustration. I also fully intended on having a Poli-Sci double major or a double minor in Marketing and Spanish...but neither even came close to happening.

[muon2]

Math and Physics double major complete with comprehensive exams in each one.

Where does modern end and contemporary begin?

Modernism in art peters out around 1950, modernism in architecture lasts maybe 15 years longer. The usage of the term 'modern' in books of the English language, according to Google's Ngram Viewer, peaks between 1930 and 1935. The term 'postmodern' begins its takeoff in the 1940s or 1950s. Are these the kinds of markers used to denote the difference? But then again, if that is our criteria then say, the year 1975, is neither modern nor contemporary.

Actually, most literature puts It on the 1959 CIAM congress.

So, how does exactly works a minor-major system, and what someone wishing to have an Architecture graduation would have for undergraduation?

[Fmr President & Senator Polnut]

political science/history double major

[Serenity Now]

My BA was in Contemporary History & Politics

[Filuwaúrdjan]

How is that defined?

In practice it just meant that I took Modern modules in 2nd and 3rd year.

Henri Pirenne rides (somewhat surreally given his main period, but that's not the point) to the rescue, as remembered by Marc Bloch:

Modern history means modern modules. How helpful!  Thanks for the that nice quote however, from some dude I never heard of. That makes up for your doing like so many do when I depose them - the last thing the deponent wants to do is answer the question, and reveal anything that might be pertinent or useful.

I had a double major of special education and history. I have never been interviewed once for a history teaching position but the saving grace was my endorsement in teaching students with behavior disorders. If anyone here is interested in becoming a teacher do not waste time going into general education as there are zero jobs in it.
