Simeon’s Answer

No, employers have almost no data and usually have to take your word that you even got the degree that you said you did. Of course, you should never be dishonest about the education you've received, but you have nothing to worry about in terms of employers knowing how many times you switched degrees.

Charlotte’s Answer

No, I don't believe an employer can see if you have changed your major/minor during college. It is possible that it varies from school to school, but typically, a transcript only says what your declared major and/or minor are, your grade point average within your major, and your overall grade point average. It is also important to note that not all employers will ask for your transcript, and it becomes less and less common for employers to ask for your transcript the longer you are out of school. I would take the time to research and explore different areas before declaring your major/minor - there is so much information available to you online that can help you make the decision. Good luck and enjoy your education - it's a time for exploration and learning!
