Is that a hazard in getting a degree in jersey?  :applaud:

UNT assigns homework?  I thought that was a glorified diploma mill.  ;D

Double major worked for me, Finance and Real Estate. It helped me get into the property management/development industry where I worked for 10 years gaining experience. The double major really helps if they are related to each other and you're looking to get into that specific industry.

ChadTower:

They help more in business than in engineering.  Adding math on top of EE or cmpsci, for instance, really only says "I stayed an extra semester".

ChadTower:

Depends on the majors.  Accounting/finance, no, but real estate and finance is a good combo.

More Cowbell:
It's all about having something more than the other guy when you're going after that first job. Who would you hire, a guy with a Finance degree or a guy with a double major in Finance and Accounting (or Economics or Real Estate, etc)? It's another feather in a resume when the resume tends to be lightest (right after graduation). You don't get the additional major with plans of skipping past the entry level positions, it gives you a leg up in that quest for a good first job.
