<p>I'm having a lot of trouble deciding what major I want to do. I'm leaning towards business and dual majoring with a science, or if I don't get into a great business school then I plan on majoring in a science. </p>
<p>What science majors are the most in demand in terms of getting a job right out of undergrad?</p>
<p>I go to a magnet school that specializes in biology, and I like the subject so I'd like to try something biology-related. I'm also very interested in the brain, physiology, and biotechnology. What major would you recommend I try?</p>
<p>My goal is to get into the management part of the biotech industry and eventually start up my own biotech company.</p>
<p>business + math is the best. investment banking. statistician. etc.</p>
<p>otherwise go for business + geology and work for oil.</p>
<p>bio is the worst combination, a bachelors in business and bio will never get to manage the PhDs who are already working near the bottom, with only techs and assistants lower (the B.S. in bio).</p>
<p>I don’t know that one can plan their careers around what is the “most in demand major”. The skillsets that are important right now may not be as important in ten or twenty years. Also, entering a field that you don’t really enjoy will make for some serious heartache down the road.

<p>If you want to get into bio-entrepreneurship a background in science will be critical. I think you are bright to consider combining biological science training with some business training. There are a plethora of professional masters of biotech programs around that cater to individuals with experience in the industry who want to shore up deficiencies in intellectual property law knowledge, molecular techniques, business administration [Master</a> of Science in Biotechnology, University of Wisconsin - Madison.
