There are many musicians in the IT field. Studying music is beneficial in
many ways, but I'm not sure I would recommend a music major along with that
computer science degree. That would be a very full load. Then again, I have
only the music degree and may be suffering a bit of professional jealousy.
Maybe a music minor, or just fill out your humanities requirements with
music courses.
