Entry level IB can be done with any business related degree. If you want to advance further than that, a graduate degree is usually reccomended along with a lot of experience. They are both great Econ programs and you will have a good shot at entering the field. No guarantees after that. You enter in as an analyst and advancements continue from there usually based yearly. Associates usually require an MBA and anything above like director, VP, Etc almost certainly requires an MBA. Here are some cool stats for MBA grads from Harvard

Finance is huge and wall street recruits heavily from the ivies.

I do want to say that an analyst can make very good money and you don’t necessarily need to obtain an MBA or want to advance. If this information is redundant I apologize.
