UCSC Business Management Economics - how is it?

<p>Maninder, thanks for the info! It all sounds great to me.</p>

3. I’m an Economics major and the biggest differences would be that BME has to take basic computer classes, accounting classes, and in upper division course work, more management classes. The core Economics curriculum is the same for both majors

</p>

<p>So is BME a more popular major than Econ at UCSC because of the required variety of courses? Are professional opportunities generally the same for both majors (for example, both BME and Econ majors getting local Big4 positions)? I may need to talk to my local CC about this, but you may know as well: I was looking on the Assist website and didn’t see articulation classes for Economics major pre-reqs, only BME. Can someone transfer into UCSC as an Econ major, or must they choose BME?</p>

<p>Yeah, I’ve decided NOT to try the commute then. Which brings me to housing options . . .</p>

<p>

There is Family Student Housing and it’s on campus, not off campus. It’s across the road from College 8 and Oakes and is just down the way from Porter.

<p>Ohhhhhh, that must’ve been what I saw and I THOUGHT it was just off campus (the campus seemed so big to me and it has been the first and only one where we did the tour in a bus). I don’t think I’ll check into it just yet as I wouldn’t plan to transfer until another couple years (still haven’t started CC). I think that would be my first choice in housing though, since it’s right there and all.</p>

<p>Thanks again everyone!</p>
