Finance?

<p>Would you apply to the Hotel School or AEM?</p>

<p>or Econ in A&S, but AEM is undergrad business (i.e. Cornell's Wharton)</p>

<p>there is always financial engineering in the Engineering schools Orperations Research department...</p>

<p>as for hotel or AEM, I would pick AEM, if it's finance that you want to do and you're not too keen on the hospitality culture.</p>

<p>There's still the FARE concentration within the Hotel School, which is finance, accounting, and real estate. So research a little and choose what's best for you. Pick what courses you like.</p>

<p>in actuality some english majors even end up in i-banking, it's all about networking and internships</p>

<p>btw. Wharf Rat are you in Operations Research & Financial Engineering?</p>

<p>what ACT scores do I need for AEM?</p>

<p>30+ i would guess</p>

<p>The best business major is Research Op in engineering, but I think thats pretty hard to get into. I would then do AEM, espec if i was a NY state resident, then do hotel. Hotel has just as many specializations as AEM, but you have to do all of these stupid hotel practicals like working the statler front desk. AEM is up and coming and I think it will be one of the premier programs pretty soon/is already well reguarded.</p>

<p>jcas323 what makes operations research in engineering the best business major? I am asking this because I was planning on doing operations research, but I just wanted to know your opinion of the field.</p>

<p>But AEM is the only certified undergrad business program (along with Wharton) in all of the Ivies right?</p>

<p>For Finance, major in AEM with a specialization in business.</p>

<p>YOu also have concnetration areas (such as management, entrepreneurship, finance, marketing, etc), and can choose finance as one of those.</p>

<p>yea AEM is the business program, but from what i hear, a lot of companies would rather see you doing a major outside of business that you may be interested in. </p>

<p>Research op is awesome because it teaches you how to do things to increase company efficiency, critically think in the business world, take high level finance classes, etc. this major just seems really impressive, challenging, and interesting to me, and is a bit different than the typical business major.</p>

<p>How are the current job prospects for Cornell graduates in Operations Research and Engineering?</p>
