<p>I'm a freshman in high school. I'm the type of guy that needs to have everything planned out for my future, and if it's not in bugs me. There is 2 majors fields I am interested in, Technology & Buisness. I would really like to be an entrepreneur when I'm older, and run a technology software company. I want to be the man in charge, so an MBA would be great for me. I do also need the knowledge for software, so I'm thinking I'll need a Computer Science degree. There is many different roads I can go down, but when I'm 40ish I want to sell my software company and become a venture capitalist. That's main reason I want my MBA. What do you guys think? What degree should I peruse first? What's more important, a masters in CS or an MBA for me? I know im all over the place but I greatly appreciate any help/feedback. </p>
<p>You should look into financial engineering or MIS if you want a combination of both! But if you want to become a cs entrepreneur and future venture capitalist get a computer science degree…start working (3-5 years) then get your MBA. Then the big bucks start flowing in. Many colleges offer clubs and organizations which allow you to put CS into a business aspect </p>

<p>Some CS programs have entrepreneur options. </p>
<p>I do not suggest pursuing financial engineering, plus it’s not really relevant to what you want to do. You don’t have to major in computer science to know how to program, but you will certainly be at an advantage if you do. I suggest majoring in computer science if you like it, and maybe taking some business courses. After you graduate, gain some work experience and apply for an MBA when you think you are ready to start running a business. Like I said, you don’t necessarily need an MBA, but it might help you if you can afford it. </p>
