Engineering Major Needs Advice - Currently studying electrical engineering
I am currently an engineering major (sophomore) at Rutgers-New Brunswick. I am currently studying Electrical Engineering, but I may switch to Mechanical Engineering. However, I am interested in becoming an investment banking analyst or working in a hedge fund or working in private equity. I hear that Wall Street likes engineers because of their technical skills. I was wondering, which engineering looks better to Wall Street? Electrical or Mechanical? Also, I am planning on double majoring in either Math Statistics or Economics. I was wondering which of the 3 is best for Wall Street? Math? Statistics? Economics? Thanks.
If you do EE, then you might be a good fit for a tech group, which you could possibly leverage into VC or tech growth equity down the road, who also like EE or Comp Sci majors. Mech E, while solid if you want to work in the field, doesn't really add value for any industry or product group within IB.
