[quote=Anonymous]If he wants to get an Econ PhD., have him take a lot of math. His econ professors should guide him. If he wants to work in investments, consulting, or general management, he doesn’t need advanced math. If he wants to work as a business/financial analyst, have him learn a programmable stats language, like R, Python, SAS, STATA, etc., and various data science techniques, like natural language programming. Increasingly, analysts have to access and manipulate large databases to work with data, combine data sets, and detect trends, etc. If he wants to create programs for algorithmic trading, have him take math and computer science.
