+===== Double Major and Minor Options =====
-Many students have broad and diversified academic interests. Sometimes, these could be pursued through double-major or major-minor combinations. For example,
-  * double major in BA Actuarial Science and a minor, BA, or BS in Economics (several of these degrees heavily overlap with the Actuarial Science track);
-  * major in BA Mathematics and minor in Computer Science (<wrap hi>You need to consult the CS department for their minor program</wrap>);
-  * major in Computer Science and minor in Mathematics.
-Many students challenge themselves by enrolling in the double degree / double major program which results in two degrees or two majors from two schools in the university. For example, a student can obtain a BS degree in Business Administration from the School of Management and a BA degree in Mathematics (Actuarial Science track); or he/she can obtain a degree in computer science from the Watson School of Engineering and Applied Science and a degree in mathematics. More information about the double degree / double major program can be found in [[https://www.binghamton.edu/harpur/advising/how-do-i/iut-double-degree.html|this website]].
+A math degree pairs well with many other fields. Some popular combinations include:
+  * **Actuarial Science + Economics:** Several Economics degrees heavily overlap with the Actuarial Science track.
+  * **Mathematics + Computer Science:** A math major with a CS minor (or vice versa).
+<WRAP tip>
+For minors outside our department (e.g., Computer Science), consult that department for their specific requirements.

+=== Double Degree Program ===
+Students can also pursue degrees from two different schools at the university—for example, a BS in Business Administration (School of Management) alongside a BA in Mathematics, or a degree in Computer Science (Watson School) with a degree in Mathematics. See [[https://www.binghamton.edu/harpur/advising/how-do-i/iut-double-degree.html|Harpur's double degree information]] for details.
