[quote=Anonymous]When I was a business major, the "generic business major" was to have a "management" concentration. It seemed to be where students ended up when they didn't really like any other track (and probably should have picked another major). Popular concentrations were finance, mgt information systems, accounting, marketing. I was a Business/Marketing major with a focus on research so I added a bunch of quant classes (MIS, Stats) as electives. It worked out fine for me. Psychology + Statistics could have gotten me to the same place but I don't know that I'd have necessarily been exposed to the specific field if I went that way. I got interested via a required consumer behavior class plus a "business statistics" class. I got a lot of practical experience in my college's program and got my first job at a consulting firm as a direct result of a required capstone project where I conducted a research project for a local business.
