What about a social entrepreneurship degree

I work at an incubator and 100% agree with this poster. Almost every successful entrepreneur knows their technical subject area better than business.

I’d ask your daughter to identify some entrepreneurs she admires and just take a glance at their pathways. She will almost certainly see a theme that they are technical experts first.

It's a major for rich people/upper class

As a business school professor, I would only let my kids do finance, accounting, or maybe so kind of business analytics. Otherwise it’s off to engineering school. Marketing, general business, and entrepreneurship are joke majors in my opinion. How many times can you learn about porters 5 forces and the 5 cs of marketing lol

lol? You sound mature. How about let your kids do what interest THEM. A college degree is not what it used to be for any major anymore
