what if i did a double major, and than got an MBA in marketing or IB on top of that, would that be alright? sorry for all the noob questions, I just really want to attend Hong Kong University because I would love to live there for 3 years, and i figured if I went there I should go for the IB degree. and then I would probably come back to the US to get an MBA in something.



Then go to Hong Kong and major in Marketing. Personally, I don’t see what International Business will teach you that you won’t a) learn in a Marketing program, b) learn from your life experience going to school in a foreign environment, and c) won’t learn from on the job training once you graduate. If you go to school in Hong Kong, in marketing, and then come to work in the states you will have no problem landing a job that has an international aspect to it. Thus, like VictorWega, I just don’t see the need. Granted, you can still do it, but it will merely be for education sake.
