umd

<p>anyone know what kind of rep umd has as an undergrad business school? good job placement? respected?</p>

<p>I attend UMD so I could answer your question. It really depends on your goals. If you want to work for the big 4, then UMD has awesome placement. If you want to go into IB or top Consulting (McKinsey, Bain, BCG) I would go elsewhere.</p>

<p>whats the big four?</p>

<p>Kind of like the Ivy league of accounting firms: Deloitte, PWC, KPMG, Ernst and Young.</p>

<p>i dont know much about business majors or anything like that, but in order to be recruited by thsoe firms, you would have to be an accounting major? im thinking about marketing or business management, would those companies still need people majroing in those fields?</p>

<p>They pretty much only want accounting majors. Do you have any careers in mind?</p>

<p>m not quite sure...what would be career choices for business management majors or marketing?</p>

<p>To tell you the truth, those two are known to be joke majors... Maybe you want to do something more quantitative?</p>

<p>hmmm...maybe ill wind up doing accounting...marketing just seemed like something that was interesting, and management seemed like it would be easy...</p>
