I’m an admitted transfer student having a difficult time choosing between UCD and UCSB. My major at UCD would be Managerial Economics, while at UCSB I’d do Economics and Accounting. The main thing I’m trying to decide, is which of these two degrees and schools will make me the most ‘hire-able’. I have a preference towards a program that includes ‘business’ courses which seems to be Man Econ, however I understand Econ & Accounting is highly prestigious and practical major. I don’t want to be an accountant, would the econ & accounting degree be a waste? I’m trying to evaluate the schools purely for their academia and the related majors and prestige/rankings.
Thank you in advance for sharing any thoughts and opinions.
