<p>male, asian from california</p>
<p>what schools good for my intended major and matches with my stats?</p>
<p>2180 SAT, 800 SATII mathiic, 780 SATII physics, 4.23 UC GPA, 4.13 W (9-11) gpa</p>
<p>open to ivies, UCs, and others</p>
<p>THANKS!</p>
<p>oh yeah, one more question: is it easier to go undelcared or as a double major? [not sure if i want to double major yet, though]</p>
<p>It may be a long shot, and you're probably not looking for something like this, but:</p>
<p>UK universities have very popular programs called engineering with business managemnet/studies.</p>
<p>Warwick and Manchester for example give you the best of both worlds. The famous UMIST institution (see wikipedia) provides the engineering aspect while the Manchester school of business fulfills your other half. Starting salaries, recruitment etc. are also much higher than counterparts in the states etc.</p>
<p>I forgot to mention that these are not double majors, but a single program.
Also, the length of the course is shorter: 3 years. However, you can make the program a four year one by doing a Masters after finishing your 3 years.</p>
<p>MIT is good :)</p>

<p>Well, UK isn't known to have great biz schools. Manchester school of business?? Never heard of it. Starting salaries, recruitment etc. are also much higher than counterparts in the states etc? Source?</p>
<p>There are lots of engineering students at USC minoring in business, since both the school of engineering and the school of business are strong here. Also, they now offer a minor in "technology commercialization" which is a business-esque minor designed for people who want to go into technical industries.</p>
<p>Check out Northwestern's top-10 economics (ranked 8th) or industrial engineering/management sciences (ranked 6th) departments and their undergrad certificate programs by Kellogg School of Mgmt <a href="http://www.kellogg.northwestern.edu/certificate/index.htm%5B/url%5D">http://www.kellogg.northwestern.edu/certificate/index.htm</a></p>
<p>any more suggestions?</p>
<p>is it harder to apply undeclared or as a double major?</p>
<p>thanks again</p>
<p>bumpppppppppp</p>
<p>UC Berkeley is definitely the way to go. Both it's engineering and business programs are both some of the best in the nation. UC Berkeley's engineering program is ranked second only to MIT and it's business program is definitely one of the top ranked (not exactly sure which rank though).</p>
<p>A bit of advice: you'd be crazy to try to double major in those two.. as in unless you are a complete genius in both subjects, you will burn yourself out.</p>
<p>^^ agreed.</p>
<p>As an added note, Berkeley's business program was recently ranked 8th by US News.</p>
<p>If you are interested in Marine Engineering / Maritime Business -- i.e. shipping; intermodal transportation; port operations; etc. -- the United States Merchant Marine Academy at Kings Point, NY is the best in that niche.</p>
