What degree combination is most appealing to investment banks?
I am an incoming freshman at a target university. I am not in the business school, however. I have already begun working with my academic advisor on transferring into the business school.
That being said, which of the following degree is most appealing to BB banks?
Business (concentration on finance)/Economics and Data Science Business (concentration on finance)/Economics and Computer Science Business (concentration on finance)/Economics and Physics Business (concentration on finance)/Economics and Statistics
Out of the four compliments, I am least interested in Computer Science but believe that it is the best compliment to a Business/Economics degree. Data Science is more interesting to me as it incorporates both Statistics and Computer Science in the course of study. Physics seems completely unrelated to IB, but it is just something that I find interesting.
What do you guys think?
Do the comp sci or data science. Comp sci is definitely something where you're expected to do a lot on your own/spend time tinkering on the side as well BTW.
If you do end up getting involved in any technical role involving coding, having a 1337 GitHub repo goes a long way as stuff like that tends to be a better gauge of coding abilities.
Target is useful. Finance is traditional, Quant is promising and artsy is diversifying
