<p>Hi! I am currently attending UC Irvine for my freshman fall quarter. Everything is well so far. I want to change my major, however, and I think I want to go into Business Economics.</p>
<p>So my question is, how can I gear an Business Economics degree towards advertising/marketing? There's no public relations or communications majors here.</p>
<p>I was also thinking of a digital art/graphic design minor, but I'm not entirely sure if it puts me in the same field as advertising (although they do relate in some manner).</p>
<p>I was also thinking of going for a management minor. Perhaps taking management classes will give me a chance to apply for business admin as well when the junior year comes around. However, my question is on business economics right now.</p>
<p>I'm sure business economics can bring you into marketing. But do you have any further advice on how to go about doing that? I was also thinking of joining the AMA (American Marketing Association). Tell me what you think please. Thank you very much!</p>
