New User: Trying to figure out what I can do with my majors

Hi,

I am a rising senior at a 20-30's small liberal arts college.

I'm a Computer science and economics double major and I'm trying to figure out how I can use my major combination. I thought I wanted to work in development however I have always preferred thinking in economic terms. I realized I would love to spend my time analyzing tech companies, investing, and learning more about the industry.

I have a overall 2.98 GPA (which is low I know though the gpa at my school tends to be low particularly in CS)
I'm graduating a semester early (this winter), I had to course overload and work full time to put myself through school because both of my parents passed away during my freshman year. Which I am worried prevents me from getting an MBA.

What can I do / where can I go where I can study the markets, particularly tech?

I hope WSO is the right place for me.
