avengbucky said: i feel like he’s not an engineer type… we’re a bit spastic… Engineering is more merlin. arthur is more on top of it. If you want to keep him in science, I’d say put him in Kinesiology or something doctory but not insane… // i could also see him doing accounting or finance and being head of like… a ton of clubs since he’s a leader and all
livetogetherdieaclone said: i don’t know much about cambridge but to answer the question in the tags, minors aren’t really a thing in england. You just pick one subject and that’s it (you can do ‘joint honours’ though, which is basically 2 subjects, b // oops i pressed reply before I finished what I was writing, I was gonna say that joint honours is basically doing 2 subjects, but in my experience it’s more common just to do one subject

mykingdomscome said: idk what a minor is; I imagine Arthur’d either do Latin, History or English. I think Prince William did art history or something at st andrews. You should send him to queen mary’s.
merlins-earmuffs said: Minors don’t exist in the UK, you do a degree and you focus on that one degree. You sure engineering is Arthur’s thing though? I feel like it would be a subject better suited to Merlin! I personally like Trinity :)
THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH. okay, i understand a bit better now. i’ll stick with the one subject. and i’ll stick him in trinity, king’s, or queen mary’s! (it’s not that big of a deal in the fic, but it’s something to mention lol)
the major is kinda secondary to the plot? but kinda not if it determines what he’s doing lol. i wanted him to do like aerospace or environmental engineering, so something with advancing weaponry or helping create a more ‘green’ environment type thing (after the royal air force stint). i kinda wanted to break him out of the standard ‘business’ mold that we mostly pigeon hole him into (which i’m ngl is fitting for him).
the other choice, in my mind, was history. but idk what he could do with that after the RAF? i don’t see arthur kinda sitting around and playing politics, he’s a man of action.
