What jobs do economics majors get?

<p>Is it true that the average starting salaries for students with economics majors are even higher than those with business majors?</p>

<p>not all schools have business and economics and schools with both usually boast better employment for the business majors.</p>

<p>agreed.</p>

<p>the truth is there are way too many sh***y business majors who are the "dumb jock" kind of people. They ruined the average salary. Economics majors are at least intellectually curious to an extend.</p>
