Hi, as an incoming freshman, I am interested in pursuing the BBA + QSS double major. I understand that this is brand new to Emory; does anyone have any opinions/information about the program?
No one can know because of its newness, but both it is a major that combines two effectively elite undergraduate programs at Emory (I don’t just mean good teaching, but access to resources, networking, and co-curricular opportunities). I do suspect that the coursework would be more difficult, especially if you chose a BBA sub-concentration that was also challenging, but I would honestly say to worry more so about how you would “use” the major and look at the opportunities available in both QTM and GBS for undergrads. It looks like a pathway that could give you lots of leverage in terms of employ-ability if you do decently well, but that is also the general purpose of the QTM majors, to “power up” traditional majors, ensuring that students get more modern skills that high paying work places are demanding/value.
