<p>can u still get good business jobs with a major in economics or managerial studies. i'm wanting to major in engineering but if that doesnt work out, should i be worried about the lack of undergrad b-school at rice. thanks</p>
<p>They have a business minor now. :)</p>
<p>This is the survey of all class of 2006 graduates. It has useful infomation such as where people with certain majors ended up working. I sent it to my parents to justify my majoring in Political Science and English (even though there weren't any POLI-ENGL double majors that year..).</p>
<p>The importance of undergrad B school is often overstated. The top IT venture capitalist in the US today is John Doerr, a Rice engineering grad. Harvard does not have an undergraduate business program. Neither do Yale or Duke. Yet they crank out dozens of grads who eventually become CEO's.</p>
<p>I haven't checked for years, but during the 70's and 80's Chemical Engineering faculty around the country regularly pointed out that more CEO's of Fortune 500 companies had Chem Eng undergrad degrees than any other single undergrad major. Success in business is a matter of problem solving ---otherwise known as engineering.</p>
