Economic History at LSE or Economics and Business Economics at Erasmus University Rotterdam?
I currently have the option to either study Economics and Business Economics at Erasmus University Rotterdam or Economic History at LSE. In the future, I'd like to break into investment banking but currently am unsure which bachelor degree would be best for me. Although LSE does carry a very valuable brand name, I don't know if Economic History would be the course that would best prepare be for IB. Would Economic History raise concerns to IB recruiters when trying to get an internship/job? On the other hands, I could study Economics and Business Economics at Erasmus University. Although Erasmus is no where near as much of a target as LSE, it is still decently reputable and I would be studying something much more focused towards what I want to do in the future. Therefore, I'm not sure whether to chose LSE's prestige and reputation or Erasmus' much more focused bachelor. What would be better in terms of breaking into IB?
LSE is a stronger brand name but erasmus is no lagger... ESE is a strong bachelor where you will learn way more than economic history at LSE. I would say do you want to do a master afterwards because you can always do a bachelor at ESE get good grades and then go to LSE for a master degree (plus you save quite some money).
LSE is better brand name. As for Econ history, just take as many stats and finance courses you can. Also learn financial statement analysis and model building. Then it’s just marketing yourself as someone who knows pretty much same stuff as finance and Econ majors.
