<p>Hello.</p>

<p>I am Columbia SEAS student.</p>

<p>My major is Computer Science , but I am considering change my major to financial engineering(B.S ,not M.S).</p>

<p>Because, financial engineering major is better to get an offer from IB.</p>

<p>Actually, I wanna be a financial analyst. </p>

<p>However, it is taking a risk to study financial engineering cuz it is very narrow and specific</p>

<p>study area, so I can not work any other field without financial engineer..right?..</p>

<p>Anyway, help me plz. which major is better to get a job?</p>

<p>which one is broad way to get a job?</p>

<p>p.s , this major is not M.S..!</p>

<p>Thanks,</p>

<p>From what I have heard, you can get into finance as a CS major. Your chances will be just as good. Your GPA is going to matter more than which of the two majors you’re in.</p>
