International Business or Economics?

[dpch]

What's a better major: International Business or Economics? What's the difference as far as the material learn? What kind of jobs does each one prepare you for? If I wanted to get a job in government, which major would be best

I don't understand why people ask for what major is better. No one knows you and what your likes and dislikes are. You'll end up with responses from Economists who say that Econ is a better major. You'll have Intl. Busn. majors who say that is a better major. Then you'll have people who may have done bad in one or the other, so they vote for the one they did better in. Makes no sense to me. What do you enjoy? Do you want to learn about Business on an International level? Or do you want to worry about the economy and where it's headed (*cough* down the drain *cough*) and try to predict what will happen with the economy. I'm sure your real question is "which one will pay me more?" b/c that seems to be the way most of the questions on here gravitate to.
