Having a minor in addition to your major gives you an edge on the competition when applying for a job. If you are an engineer with a minor in chemistry, then you may be considered for a position before a person with just an engineering degree. Also, you will have taken credits toward that particular major while you were minoring in it, so if you decide to get a bachelor's degree in your minor, you are halfway there.\nI personally would like to continue my education into my late 80's or 90's. Die with about 25 degrees and 300 minors.\nWhy? Well, why not? \n;)

For my students who hate math, I tell them math is your friend. It will always give you the right answer if you check your work. So you know when you are done with a problem or not.\n\nMath helps us to practice a set of steps in solving a problem. Once we learn the steps, we do them the same way each time. So we know how to follow the pattern from beginning to the middle steps to the end, and then how to check it over afterwards.\n\nThis trains our brains to solve problems, to know when we are at the beginning, or in the middle, or finished at the end. We gain a sense of "intuition" when we are not doing a step right, and need to go back and redo it to make the other steps work out.  So one of the purposes is to help us "troubleshoot" while solving problems, knowing when we are on the right track, and when we have found the right answer.

Take your basic requirements first.  It not only helps to get them out of the way, but it also buys you some time to get familiar with a variety of disciplines so you can see what you really like before you declare your major!\n\nGetting your basics done first allows you to concentrate on what you REALLY like as a Jr. and Sr.\n\nTrust me on this one......I'm a person who knows.

Looking for one? or trying to make one? or what? that doesn't exactly give a whole lot to what your asking.

It explains the reason for why something happened, or why customers are doing what they're doing, why they moved to the competitor...etc.\nIts main purpose is to explain an unknown that's already happening.. not to discover something new.

you go to college to minor and major in something...what you major in is your primary "skill" and your minor is your secondary. A graduate student is someone who has already got their B.A. or B.S or B.M degree (bachelors) and undergraduate is someone who is still in college and hasn't graduated with a bachelors degree yet.

Just as the name would suggest they help to direct you into a career that they and/or you feel that you are best suitable for.  They often will advice on any special courses that are required in certain fields and may be able to hook you up with potential employers.  Look in the yellow pages or have your sister go to Human Resources and Development Centre and they will help also.

You only get a degree on the subject you are majoring in. You can get a degree in the "minor" that you have chosen, if you had earned enough credits on that subject. but then, that wouldn't be your "minor" anymore, would it?\n\nto answer your question, minor, i guess, is to show off how diversified your education has been. some people minor a language to get better chance to be employed in foreign companies or MNCs as well.\n\nim from hong kong btw. but education system is not so different as far as major/minor is concerned...i guess

Yeah, they're a pain, but they help people bring some of the ideas of a subject together, help the teacher determine the effort of the student and effectiveness the class. It also helps determine where students abilities lie and helps identify potential fields of work. Finally, it helps determine whether the person is college material and what type of college they should attend. Of course a lot of people say this is pigeon holing, but over-all the system works okay, and a better more efficient system hasn't been proven to accomplish these functions.

Here is a list of colleges with dance majors... I know that is not exactly what you want, but it is the best I can find, and it is a good bet that most schools with a dance minor also offer it as a major.

What is it supposed to be used for?

Actually, perhaps you need to blaze your own way. The university that I did my undergrad at had a "make your own" degree program. You still had to satisfy basic requirements, but you could actually make your own, with approval from the college whose umbrella it fell under. Also, I suggest that NO ONE declares a major until their sophomore or even junior year. Get your core out of the way. The point of core classes is to introduce you to new things. It is NOT to teach you the basics; you should have gotten that in gradeschool. That is why you have to take things like history, art, sociology, science, math, english, foreign language, etc. for your core. It is to introduce you to new and useful fields that you might find appetizing.

Donate all body parts (a) to those who need them, e.g kidney, heart, etc, and (b) the rest to medical research.\n\nIf you are a minor, please seek parental consent first.  Be warned that such permission will be denied!!\n\nSeriously now, look around to see if there is someone who needs your help, e,g  a neglected child, an elderly neighbor, an academically challenged youth.  Try to bring some joy to someone else (even if you yourself do not have much joy).

I majored in Child Development. I don't do much with it now, but it does come in handy every now and again with my own children. You learn about how children develop ie: average age they begin to walk, talk, etc.
