<p>I realize many people have asked this question before but I was hoping you could help me make the decision based off of my interests specifically. I have taken marketing, economics, and statistics courses and have so far liked all of them, so by no means I am sure exactly which direction I want to go with when pursuing a career. Also, I believe I have a pretty good chance of getting accepted to the schools listed below. Would it be best for me to earn a degree in an undergraduate business school (i.e. Georgetown) or earn a liberal arts degree in economics (i.e. Vanderbilt) while minoring in something like corporate management? How do employers in the business field look at the difference between a liberal arts degree and undergraduate business school degree? </p>
<p>Some schools I am comparing: </p>
<p>UNDERGRAD BUSINESS</p>
<p>Georgetown, Washington University in St. Louis, Emory, and Notre Dame</p>
<p>I’ll point out that you don’t have to choose between a business major and a liberal arts degree. Rhodes offers business as a major, and I’m sure many other LACs do too.</p>
<p>I hope you already know that you don’t have to go to an undergrad b-school to go into the business world, but if you would like to go directly into business, then there is your choice, go to undegrad b-school. Yet when choosing, you should ask yourself questions like is this school a target school for top corporations? where would I like to work in the future? and is going to said school going to help you get there? etc…</p>
<p>Also of note, even though Duke does not have an undergrad b-school, it is a target for major corporations, more so than Emory and Notre Dame.</p>
