Although there were other factors that influenced my final decision to join NTU’s DM Programme, with regards to the programme itself I liked that both majors are given equal emphasis. At the time when I was applying, other universities did not offer double majors yet. Given my equal interest in both subject areas, the DM curriculum structure fit me better than opting for a second major, where more focus is placed on your primary major. I was initially worried about the workload, however the seniors I talked to assured me that it was manageable. There was also the option to change to a single major within the first academic year if I really had trouble managing.
