<p>I want to go into business, but i do NOT want a Business administration degree(or an accounting degree)</p>
<p>I was thinking mathematics + economics, finance, financial mathematics, statistics, or just plain old mathematics</p>
<p>Will degrees in any of those help me land a job in business in 4 and a half years?</p>
<p>BTW I am looking at large state schools to attend</p>
<p>my top 3 choices are Northeastern, Delaware, and James Madison</p>
<p>well, if you go the finance and economics path, you could do well in i-banking. really, i would consider adding economics to any major. economics is different than the other business degrees typically offered, because it does not direct you towards a type of job. you are not being directed towards, we'll say, direct marketing. instead of helping a company understand how to reach their customers in a direct manner, you help them understand the environment in which they are doing business. your critical thinking will also improve greatly, as economics is very conceptually based.</p>
<p>Look in some Applied Math programs too.</p>
