I'm starting college next year and I want to know which major (or double major) would be best for S&T and quant finance. Assume that all of these majors are a top 25 college (just an assumption, not trying to be pretentious).
- Operations Research (with emphasis on computational finance/financial engineering)
- Finance (general)
- Economics
- Computer Science
I'm leaning toward operations research right now, but I'm afraid it will make it harder to be recruited for regular S&T. Are math majors at an advantage/disadvantage when it comes to S&T jobs compared to typical finance/business majors?
