Systems Engineering is worth checking out. Instead of creating products, you learn about creating and managing “systems” which can relate to any aspect of a business. You usually learn a lot of computational modeling in such a major as well, and those skills could be useful in a variety of business jobs.

Another approach is to major in Statistics and pursue all of your internships and jobs in business. I know someone who did that, and she has worked for Google and other top corporations. There are lots of business jobs for people with quantitative skills, and a Statistics major is a direct path to getting those skills.
