Business vs Engineering?

<p>I am a third year student at University of California (Irvine) attempting to transfer into several Canadian universities.</p>

<p>While I was at UCI I studied Business Economics, although all the classes I took were economics related and had little to do with business itself. I realized I have absolutely no interest in accounting or finance, so I don't see much career opportunities for me ahead.</p>

<p>I thought about transferring in as a different major/concentration under Business where there wouldn't be a huge focus on finance or accounting. My first question is, is this possible? If so, what major(s) would you recommend? I've seen all types of business and commerce majors such as Business Process Management and Operations Management. I've done some research and I still don't get what theyre about and the differences among all these.</p>

<p>Second question. If I do switch into a different business major with lesser focus on accounting/finance, how much of my economics courses do you suppose will overlap with the new major? Do you think I'll have to basically restart from scratch?</p>

<p>Finally, I've thought about going into engineering since I enjoy teamwork and sharing ideas. This has led me to look into civil engineering and maybe industrial engineering. If that's the case, is it even worth it to look into undergrad business (since I could always go into MBA later anyway)? Are there any other engineering concentrations you would recommend?</p>

<p>Thanks in advance!</p>
