<p>I am really interested in working for IBM..particularly in the high tech areas. It's kinda hard to word it...but I am most intrigued by designing new technology (cell phones/computers), web design, and just simply learning how the computer parts work. </p>
<p>The thing is...I am a business major and I really have no idea what concentration will reward me with a job like that. We are not allowed to double major so I am STUCK! ><</p>
<p>Any suggestions?</p>
<p>Go to grad school and major in electrical engineering. I know at UT Austin you can do an engineering route to business major, is there a similar program at your school?</p>
<p>It sounds like you want to be an engineer, but if not then MIS is the ideal major/concentration. With that major you could get into web design, software development, or IT consulting with a company like IBM.</p>
<p>EE or, if you are more into the design aspect (how it looks) over how it operates, Industrial Design Engineering.</p>
<p>From my interpretation, I think you’ll be happy in MIS (Management Information Systems) and stay on the technical side, not the analytical.</p>
<p>I had the opportunity to meet an alum of my high school who is an executive at IBM. He told me most of the guys there get a computer science or related degree for their undergrad and then an MBA.</p>
<p>^ That’s how I’d do it if I needed/wanted computer science skills, or any other engineering or specific and highly technical field.</p>
