There's an interesting book called "Managers Not MBAs", written by a professor of business, which talks about why the MBA system is pretty broken.
IMO, studying business as an undergrad is pretty useless. Study something real (science or engineering), and if you want to learn about business later, go to business school (or start a company if you really want to learn about business).
- coryl 17y agoLOL @ studying something "real" like science or engineering. My friend, you wouldn't last a day in the Amazonian jungle with a native tribe. (Anthropology, but thats not real.) Study what you love first and foremost, even if thats business. Everything else will fall into place.
- argv_empty 17y agoAnthropology, but thats not real. At the undergrad level, maybe not. At higher levels, most things become a lot more real. Of course, you aren't likely to be doing that sort of field work as an undergrad anyway (or so I hear from high school friends who went on to study anthropology in college).
