<p>I just finished off my first quarter of college (it was a blast) and I am starting to think about what I want to do with my life. Originally, I came into school as a PoliSci major, but I don't know how far I am going to go with this, or if its the right choice for me. I have been contemplating (but not necessarily a sure thing) switching to a business/econ related major, but I would like to know more.</p>

<p>A detailed description is not necessary, more, a list of the different types of careers in business, I can research them myself, thanks!</p>

<p>vault.com is a good resource</p>

<p>Just a list of all the concentrations I can think of relating to business:
IT, Operations, Marketing, Finance, Accounting</p>

4

<p>Marketing, Sales, Advertising, R&D, Research, HR, Publicity, Management, Consulting, etc., etc.</p>

<p>But, in truth, most business majors generally become branch managers for a rental car or pay day service.</p>

<p>Better than working at Starbucks as most liberal arts majors end up doing.</p>
