<p>I was recently accepted as a transfer student to Emory University. </p>
<p>All of my life I've had my mind set on studying business. It is what I loved and it came extremely natural to me, persona and all. However recently, I have been questioning my path. </p>
<p>My goal in life is to make a difference in world and ultimately make it a better place for everyone. Call me a dreamer, but it's true. Now for whatever reason, I am beginning to believe that business is selfish. Am I really benefiting anyone but myself and my company (in most careers)? </p>
<p>I randomly took an vague interest in engineering recently. The reason I believe this happened is because 1) it is challenging 2) I am not naturally good at it. I always desire to push myself out of my comfort zone.</p>
<p>Now this sparks the question: is engineering (depending of the exactly focus) more beneficial to society? Enough so that it would make me change majors? I just don't see business as THAT beneficial. </p>
<p>Emory is a top business school. However, they also have a dual major agreement with Georgia Tech that allows the student to receive a degree from Emory liberal arts and Georgia tech engineering. Possibly a major in Econ and engineering? </p>
<p>Do you think that engineering is reasonable path? I just don't want to feel as if I am changing my mind for no reason. </p>
<p>Also, I look forward to grad school for MBA. </p>
<p>Any thoughts would be appreciated. Let me know if you have any questions. </p>
