Business is a very broad field. I went to business school, but under that umbrella there was marketing, economics, accounting, accounting information systems, and OMIS (computer related degree). I chose accounting because of the many jobs that were available right after graduation, where many other degrees required further education, or had a small job field with very few openings. There will always be a need for an accounting professional, and the people I work with are always fun to be around. I would search for the universities with the best business schools, as attending a good school with make a job search easier as companies will come to the school to recruit students for jobs right after graduation. Hope this helps and good luck!

One of the biggest benefits of a business degree is its versatility and application to the real world. Unlike a specialized degree, a business degree can help you launch your career in several different industries, which can be a huge asset when seeking a job after graduation. In my opinion a general business degree has more utility than most liberal arts degrees.
