BEST undergrad schools represented at top fims for marketing and/or finance??

<p>Trying to finalize my college list and I'm just kinda wondering??? I'm also interested in international business, I kinda hope to work in China like shanghai or Hongkong or overseas however I don't think there are any schools that are really good in "international Business".... lol please post!</p>

<p>Wharton is tops in all of the above (marketing, finance, and international business), and has an excellent international reputation and alumni network.</p>

<p>Harvard and Wharton are both very good. Many students interested in finance or international business at Harvard usually study economics.</p>

<p>haha thanks all for replying!</p>

<p>I guess it would be useful to post my list
NYU stern
CMu tepper
Upenn Wharton
Cornell AEM
Umich
MIT
Indiana Kelley
USC Marshall
maybe one of the other Ivy leagues, I do not want to go to Harvard or Princeton or Yale.</p>

<p>Again Thanks for all replies!</p>

<p>Columbia College.</p>

<p>Just so you know, you don’t have to go to an undergraduate business program to get into international business.</p>

<p>really??? well wharton and NYU stern both have international busniess listed under their majors???</p>

<p>Dartmouth doesn’t have a Business program, but a top notch Econ one, and a totally amazing Study Abroad program. For ibanking, it’s right after Harvard and Wharton in Top Bank recruiting.</p>

<p>Also, under the D-Plan, you have a very flexible schedule, so you can take almost any term off to do an internship. Its alumni network is also extremely tight-knit, and spread out throughout fields. <3</p>

<p>NYU has international business only as a co-major. </p>

<p>Wharton is the obvious business school of choice. Since you’re not looking into HYP, do consider NYU Stern as a serious option. Finance is its strength (2nd to Wharton according to US News), and it also does well in Marketing. The school also has a heavy emphasis on studying abroad and NYU Abroad sites include both Shanghai and Hong Kong. Also, there is a required trip abroad in your Junior year, which is awesome. </p>

<p>Sorry, I don’t know about the other schools! I’m going to Stern next year so I’m a little biased ;D</p>

<p>Penn also has its own College which offers the International Relations major. As someone who has done marketing work for one of the world’s preeminent icons of marketing prowess–in Beijing and Shanghai–I can tell you that we Penn IR majors do quite well in the field. Our curriculum does have overlap with Wharton’s international business courses.</p>

<p>And I am writing this from JFK International where I am waiting to board my flight to the international business job I took with a conglomerate in India.</p>

<p>Why do you say this? Dartmouth is a top school with top faculty. At the undergraduate level I’m sure it can stack up to any college of its caliber.</p>

<p>beefs,
What Dartmouth has is a top notch undergraduate program. That along with its D-plan and alumni network make its undergrads very successful in all fields.</p>

<p>How can you have a “top undergraduate program” without top departments within? Think before you post.</p>

<p>^^ IPBear has it right.</p>

<p>Because “top department” denotes a graduate stat, not an undergrad one. People on CC often confuse the two. Dartmouth does among the top 4-5 schools in the country in finance placement, well ahead of most of the Ivies and business schools. Dartmouth “undergrad” is one of the best in the country.</p>

<p>I agree with slippers1234. Top departments usually refer to ones carrying out large quantities of quality researches, but the quantity of research doesn’t equate to quality education for undergrads. For instance, a top department may have numerous Nobel Laureates who only teach large upper level courses. A top undergraduate program has teachers, whose accomplishments may be slightly lower than those Nobel Laureates, teaching small lower level classes.</p>

<p>“For instance, a top department may have numerous Nobel Laureates who only teach large upper level courses. A top undergraduate program has teachers, whose accomplishments may be slightly lower than those Nobel Laureates, teaching small lower level classes.”</p>

<p>True. This is why LACs such as Williams, Amherst, and Swarthmore are among the best colleges.</p>

<p>UChicago. Having the widely considered best Econ program and maybe best Business school in the world doesn’t hurt the undergrad’s reputation.</p>

<p>gonna bump and thanks to all for replying , the advice is taken into serious consideration!</p>

<p>I definitely would head to Dartmouth over Chicago and most schools if I wanted as Wall Street or consulting job. I see it as the pragmatic career ivy.</p>
