what are they in unis?

major — the main field of study that u have applied for. for example, english literature.

minor — ur secondary specialization((s) up to three, but it’s rare) that you choose while studying in the university. these go alongside w ur major, and are with fewer required courses (4-6 classes). for example, philosophy. 🔇

using both for an example: if you major in architecture, u could minor in business 🔇

minors r less common in Europe, but ARE a common thing in the USA. sometimes, like in Germany, there is no formal “minor” label, but the flexibility exists. 🔇
