Which major in business for bachelor degree : accounting, finance, marketing, management, general business,?


Which should I pursue?
I heard accounting is very difficult, and I don't think finance would be best for me because i'd never be good at sales. I'm not sure if management is good for me either, because I don't really want to be a boss.
I already have an engineering degree, but I gave that career up because i didn't like the work.
Maybe I'm just doomed to be a professional , poor student?

I meant to say marketing wouldn't be best for me, i think finance might be ok.

Accounting would probably have the best job security, with the constant rule changes and regulations and if you like something that is rather routine. Finance would probably be the most compatible with an engineering degree. Some of the concepts have a lot in common with the hard sciences and engineering. Finance is not about sales. Its analytical. Marketing is probably the most different from engineering. If you like being creative and trying to figure out what people like and figuring out consumer behavior that might be a good idea.. General business kind ot ties all of the business degrees together.

management.

I have a business degree--general. And you want my advice?

1) Find what you like. If you like it, you'll enjoy it.

2) You're an engineer! Compared to that, finance and accounting will be a breeze!

3) EXPERIENCE will be key. I have no experience and am going nowhere fast.

4) Write down what you want from a career. You don't want to be boss. What do you want?

If you already have your degree, why not go back for your MBA?

Since you have an engineering degree,,,,,,,,try a MS in Financial Engineering..starts at $130,000 right out of the box........money is nice...........

I think with your engineering degree a good complement might be a general degree in business administration. If you specifiy in something it should be something you know you want to do...a couple examples may be:

Accounting - CPA, auditor, controller, etc...
Finance - Financial planning, budgeting, forecasting, investment analysis
Marketing - Market research/analysis, advertising, promotions
Management - Management track at a variety of industries

With a general BBA you could touch on all of those areas and get a good understanding of each. Pair one of those with an engineering degree and it could open up alot of doors. There are alot of business people who don't have technical knowlege and vice versa. Someone with both business and technical skills could work in some pretty interesting areas which mix the two...good luck.

i think your decision is right
major in finance is best from all point of view
good luck for ur future!
