What is better, a Master of International Economics and Finance or a Master in International Business

What is better, a Master of International Economics and Finance or a Master in International Business?
I have my undergrad in Finance, but have not been able to find any good jobs. So I was thinking to do my Master, but am not sure what field will guarantee me the better job opportunities. I was looking particularly in Australia as the universities seem very good and cheaper there, and found the Master of Int Economics and Finance and the Master of International Business. But I am not sure which one would be better in order to get a good career started. Like I said, I have my undergrad in Finance, but it was really hard. So I am not that inclined to do the first option, but I would if it's worth it.

I want to get my master's in International Business, what should I major in in college

I want to get my master's in International Business, what should I major in in college?
I want to go into International Business eventually, but I want my undergraduate to be a degree in something else. I'm definitely doing a minor in Spanish. Should I major in English or Economics? Which would be a better start to a career in International Business?

Try the University of Michigan Industrial Engineering (IE), Global Leadership program. Its HARD. Choosing IE puts you on the path with some tough statistics and math courses but its the least technical of the engineering courses. Its an honors program so you must first do very well in other courses. With this degree you can go ANYWHERE for a MBA in international business.

Find a course, where you can choose from a variety of modules,that way you can spend the first year doing English, economics and Spanish, and it shouldn't effect your final grade. I didn't really know what i wanted and took a combined studies course and did history english, philosophy and space science in the first year. it was in the second year i made my choices and at least I can say I studied these at uni level. as well as that, i could change the title of the degree depending on the final modules I took. Anyhow, i'd take economics, what about something cultural? in english i had to read so many books, which really takes up a lot of time, like 2 novels a week, it felt a bit like a factory line.

Either English or Economics would be good. If you are thinking of a more finance oriented job than Economics. If more marketing or human resource, then English. Psychology is good for business. Since communication is important in business, English works well though. Charles Wankel Associate Professor of Management St. John's University, New York http://facpub.stjohns.edu/~wankelc

My advice is to major in Economics. I think Economics coursework is really helpful in graduate business studies, because it gives you groundwork for understanding not only how macro and micro Economic trends affect markets and companies, but also working with econometric and regression type statistical models. This is really useful stuff in grad school. In fact, when I earned my MBA at Michigan State, we had to take two graduate level economic courses. More importantly, if decide to take a year or two off between bachelor degree and graduate school. Economics will be much more beneficial in helping you land your first job. I donĂ¢€™t really want to put English down as field of study, since it is an excellent major for almost anybody. Its greatest strength is that it helps you write in clear and concise manor. On the downside, it is very dissimilar to finance, accounting, and other business courses. So, you are in for a big adjustment once you get to business school. Also, I can say from firsthand experience recruiters do not like liberal arts graduates. Best of luck, Pauly

Would a Master Degree in International Business be to general

Would a Master Degree in International Business be to general?
I have a bachelors degree in Business Administration/Sales and Marketing. I am working on my MBA in International Business. I know specialization is important. Do you think this degree would be beneficial? I am currently working in Accounting/Finance. I don't want to continue on this path.

If specialization is important to you, you should get an MS, not an MBA. The MBA is a general degree training you to manage business at any level up to CEO. A concentration in the MBA program amounts to 2-3 elective courses in some field in the second year, but it does not make you a specialist in that field. Some students don't take a concentration but elect a variety of courses in the second year to gain a broad background for management.
