Career Advice For Going Into The Consulting Industry?
Asked by josuevf
I am currently about to get my undergrad and i know for a fact that i want to end being a consultant. I am toying with two options. Option one is an industrial engineering degree with a minor in business admin. and computer science. Option 2 is a dual major in manegment science(business informations systems track), and international business and also includes a minor in computer science. Just in case it helps, i speak english, spanish, and portuguese, and would like to do consulting throughout latin america and the usa. Any thoughts on which option would be better? And yes, i do plan to get my mba afterwards, and work to get experience...but strictly looking at undergrads, which option would look best?

Best Answer:
They are both good options. I think it is more important to do what you want. As for the top tier consulting firms, it matter more for what school you went and the grades you receive. Best of luck.
