<p>Is this even considered a business program? Will I have any chance of getting into ibanking or finance firms with a degree in this major? I'm in the college of human ecology because I thought I'd be doing pre-med but I recently changed my mind and I decided to do business but I'm stuck since human ecology isn't business oriented except for maybe this major. is this major reputable at all and will it help me get jobs in the future?</p>
<p>No it is not a business program, it is a policy program.</p>
<p>And again no, NO MAJOR will guarantee you or forbid you from getting any job. Repeat after me. No major will guarantee you or forbid you from getting any job.</p>
<p>While I do not know enough about PAM to comment, the best course of action for you would be to wait until you get to school, talk with your advisor and go from there. It is very easy to transfer to CALS and declare an AEM major, or arrange a transfer to the Hotel School or ILR all of which would be the more “ideal” and typical majors for ibanking hopefuls.</p>
<p>i will be a freshman this coming fall and am a PAM major. I intend to combine the PAM major with a minor (concentration… they’re changing things up this year, no longer concentrations so you have more freedom…) in chinese (i’m not chinese/asian but i have been taking chinese for the past 3 years). I plan to go into international business and while this major is primarily involved with public policy/government type issues (think FDA, politics) a LOT of students go onto get MBAs and a fair amount (when i visited i learned about a bunch) who went straight into iBanking</p>
<p>hope this helps</p>
<p>remember you can always transfer to a different college (arts and sciences, AEM, or hotel) sophomore year… internal transfers aren’t that hard to do</p>
<p>How is the career counseling with PAM? Does it have it’s own career center like AEM does? If it doesn’t, are PAM students allowed to use the AEM resources?</p>
