<p>Here are my choices of double majoring in economics and some business degree:</p>
<p>economics/international business=impossible as I won't get into the program, so I'm choosing the next best thing</p>
<p>-economics/marketing
-economics/management
-economics/management science
-economics/accounting
-economics/finance</p>
<p>I want a job that involves the international market.</p>
<p>econ/language</p>
<p>Would prefer another business major, I have to take language electives but I can't see myself getting a degree in it.</p>
<p>econ/accounting.</p>
<p>studying accounting is so useful for all aspects of business. i feel like finance is a bit more narrowly focused.</p>
<p>I don't see accounting being very useful for international business.</p>
<p>Economics/finance without a doubt. It is the most useful one on there by far if you have international aspirations. Most people would also find it the most challenging. </p>
<p>Finance, unlike the other possibilities you have listed, is very closely related to economics. Also, I'm not sure whether you have a professional level of proficiency in other languages, but if not, finance is the field where your lack of language skills and lack of local cultural knowledge would matter the least if working in a foreign country. (Foreign = non-english speaking; UK, Australia, Canada and Ireland don't really count)</p>
<p>i agree with the econ/finance</p>
<p>awesome! I was looking at the course guide book for my uni and it has three different concentrations under finance. I think we can choose from it.</p>
<p>they are:
corporate finance
investments
financial services</p>
<p>the first one is what I would go for right?</p>
<p>i'm (hopefully) double majoring in finance and economics too! i might do an econ minor though. is it that vastly different to minor in econ instead of majoring in it if i want to go into something like being a financial analyst? i heard having an econ background is good for any aspect of business.</p>
<p>I was thinking about management science.. It seems interesting, I was reading the course book and it looks to me like its a lot of computer stuff.</p>
<p>econ/math</p>
<p>10 char</p>
<p>finance is just applied economics so doing a double major with those two would be relatively easier than two subjects that arent interrelated but then again it narrows your knowlege and the more broad your knowledge the better asset you can become, right?</p>
<p>I strongly disagree with the idea that broader=better. If that were true, general arts majors would have among the lowest unemployment rates and among the highest starting salaries. lol... ahem. Gaining in-depth knowledge in selected subjects is more difficult than reaching a beginners' level in a wide range of things.</p>
<p>Between corporate finance, financial services, and investments, I'd say you should go for all three. They are all a bit different and it's impossible to know which one you'll like better without trying them out. In your situation though, given your international aspirations, I would not specialize in corporate finance. The other two would be better options IMO. But do try them all!</p>
<p>nauru wins</p>
<p>all 3 of them are 15 hrs each lol! that would be a bit tough considering I would do economics at the same time. oh I also thought corporate finance would be the one closest to the international mkt. but financial services looks good</p>
