Emory Undergrad - Economics/CS over Goizueta Business School BBA?

Simply, I would like to major in something a little more theoretical in college. Frankly, I just enjoyed the Econ and CS courses at Emory more than I did the pre-requisite Business School courses. Just took an intro CS course and Intermediate Econ Courses and really enjoyed it/did well. I plan on getting an MBA after undergrad anyways. I do know that the Career Center and OCR at Goizueta is significantly better so it would probably entail more effort on my part to find a job, but I see a lot of Bain/McKinsey/PE Hires from Emory econ/cs backgrounds. I'm not entirely committed on the whole Investment Banking/Strategy Consulting prestige hunt quite yet ( didn't exactly LOVE Financial Accounting ), so maybe this could open some doors in other areas. (More interested in consulting over banking personally )
