What do recruiters think about math and engineering majors?

For starters sorry, if I post this in the wrong forum I'm new here. So in some of the universities I've been accepted to I was offered to do a double major in econ and math at UCLA. Or I can go to Claremont Mckenna and then Harvey Mudd and get a dual degree in econ and engineering. I want your opinions on which one of these will employers like the most and from those universities or whether it's not even that important. P.S.: I also got into UCL but just a plain econ major which is why I don't like it but if you think it's better in the eyes of employers please say below.
