College Major and After College Help
Hello I'm applying to colleges soon but I've been confused about a couple of things and those things are the difference between majoring in business and finance. Also If anyone can tell me jobs that are available with for those majors after getting an MBA. I would like to work on wall street I just don't know what I would like to do. If anyone can clear things up for me it would be amazing!
The difference between finance and business depends on the school. At some schools, there is only one business degree, and then you choose one of several concentrations. In this type of situation, finance would be one of those concentrations. At other schools, there are multiple business degree programs, and there is a distinction between a general business or management degree and finance.
You shouldn't be concerned with MBA programs now. You will need to work 2-3 years after your finish your undergrad schooling before you can apply to an MBA program, and by then, you may decide not to go at all.
not entirely true on 2-3 years experience. that's "typical" profile and NOT REQUIRED. Certainly rare though. I met a Stanford GSB alum straight from UG this weekend, but they take ~5 from ~200 intakes annually.
Business: involves the broad topics of Accounting, Economics (some in b-school, some not), Finance, Operations/Supply Chain, Management/Strategy/Communication/Leadership, Marketing/Psychology.
Finance: using numbers and gut-reactions to value investment opportunities.
undergrad business is a cool typical major, and it usually doubles the power if you combine hard science (engineering/math) or "poet majors" like psychology or communications.
What do you mean by " doubles the power"? Like if I would minor in Bio or something like that?
Also thanks for the help
people appreciate hard curriculums and diverse backgrounds. so Yes. but it only works when you enjoy both.
