<p>Hey guys, so for my major I'm going to be concentrating in Finance within the McIntire School of Commerce at UVA. I'm wondering what else would be a good major/minor option to go along with this? Math or Econ or something else? Thanks</p>
<p>Math is good for S&T. Not so much for IBD. Accounting is good.</p>
<p>For corporate finance in investment banking do the finance and accounting program they have. If you’re doing s&t, then as it was mentioned above, do finance and math- maybe throw in some macroeconomics classes as well.</p>
<p>Which would be best for investment banking in terms of the education? I have two options Northwestern’s economics program with a certificate in finance or Cornell’s AEM specializing in applied economics and finance.
A little advice would be greatly appreciated.</p>
<p>As stated on many other threads on here, Cornell tends to be recruited much more than Northwestern for IB, so I’d choose Cornell’s program.</p>
<p>Yeah I’ve read that all over this forum. But I was wondering about it in terms of the education because I’ve heard that in general business schools tend to be easier than something more theoretical and analytical such as a liberal arts economics degree.</p>
