What career paths in finance can I venture into as a Business Administration student?

I am a Pen-ultimate year student in Business administration looking at graduating in a year, and I'm unsure of a career path to venture into once I graduate. I have interests in entrepreneurship, business development and investments, though my knowledge is limited in these, I want to know what path to focus on and build a solid career there.

How can you feel like a good person while incorporating AI into your business?

I know AI is a growing tool and can be very useful in the business setting. But the environmental impact is very real and very scary. We may not think that a simple entry on Claude will affect our own water usage, but in the near future that could very well be the case. #Spring26

What is one skill you developed too late in your business career that you wish had been your foundation from day one; and what's the fastest way a student like me can actually start building it now?

I am currently a community college student who has applied to transfer to a 4-year college. I'm pursuing a career in business, but I'm not 100% sure which path to take yet. I want to make sure I'm building the right foundation now so I'm not playing catch-up later. Any specific resources, habits, or experiences you'd recommend for someone at my stage would be really helpful. Thank you!

Is it wise to only get a music therapy degree? Thank you for reading my thoughts and thank you in advance for helping me!

I want to become a music therapist to work with all ages and abileties. I was told that a socialwork degree would be much better in terms of money and job opportunities. I also love music and psychology practices so music therapy as a career seems like the best fit. Music has been a leading factor in my life since I was very young. Being a full-time musician doesn't align with my personality and life circumstances. However, I know that most music therapists have their own businesses and I'm more of a social butterfly. I love bouncing ideas off people and working as a team My friends say I really help them through their problems and give them real tools for them to help themselves.

How can I leverage college education towards entrepreneurship opportunities?

In college, I want to pursue integrating basic business and financial training into youth groups. I will experiment with hands-on workshops and guest speakers, using practice-based learning methods to help students expand their creativity and gain confidence in their entrepreneurial passions. I want to help middle and high school students feel confident learning business, finance, and entrepreneurship from professionals who’ve applied these skills firsthand. I hope to introduce a way that creates accessibility to business education and teaching.

College vs start up, which makes more sense?

What is everyone’s opinion about a traditional college experience rather than starting the business I know I want now? Trying to justify spending $120,000 for four years at a state college instead of using that money for starting my business. #Fall25

I had marketing internships but now i am scared to do tech ones. Any advice?

I am an IT senior but my resume is more business-centered focus since I am not a technical type of person. I hate coding but lately, I want to dive into non-tech roles with minimal coding or like other branches of IT but I chickened out. Some of the requirements like python code development. I do not have that skillset. Should I still apply and learn from the internship? or should I beefed up my resume first? Some roles I am interested in: business analyst, project management, product development or ui/ux design.

What do I need to start a mobile food cart business?

I am 14 years old and located in the state of Arkansas. As far as I am aware, a person under the age of 18 does not need a business permit in my state. Regardless of that, what permits would I need to get for a mobile "make your own" charcuterie business? How would I draft up a business plan to show to people? How do I know what resources I need to get started? I know that I'm young, but that doesn't mean I'm not determined. I know that I'm able to do this.

In your experience, how has the Cornell Dyson School of Applied Economics and Management helped you solve real-world problems through innovation and global research Can you share specific projects you have created? #Spring25

Hi, my name is Neriah, and I am a rising first-year student at the Cornell Dyson School of Applied Economics and Management. I am passionate about innovation, financial literacy, and fashion business/marketing, with an interest in tech and engineered solutions. I aim to use my major, Applied Economics and Management, to innovate global platforms of economic empowerment for marginalized creators and entrepreneurs. I would greatly appreciate gaining insights from a Cornell Dyson student, alumnus, or economics major who has innovated or worked on projects addressing key issues such as fashion sustainability, economic inclusion, or other challenges in the business world, especially those incorporating tech and engineered solutions. Any perspectives or advice would be incredibly valuable as I begin my journey at Cornell. Warmly, Neriah #Spring25

How did the people you've met —mentors, friends, or experiences— help you realize what kind of business or nonprofit you wanted to create, Ms. CEO? #Spring25

I'm passionate about launching both a business and a nonprofit foundation to create student internships and build an endowment that supports students like me as my long (long) term career goals. I want to give back to communities that have invested in me. But I'm still figuring out how to invent a product or service that makes an impact. How do you come up with a meaningful idea and identify your target audience? This summer, I’ll be traveling to Vietnam, Japan, and interning in Korea for 6 weeks to study K-beauty marketing and business. I'm especially driven to make financial literacy more accessible to marginalized communities.
