<p>Did you really just call NU way better than Duke for undergraduate economics? I’m speachless. </p>
<p>Investment Banking has to deal with mergers and buying companies. It’s not directly related to economics, but it relates. There is no investment baking major, but if you know economics and know how to use excel, you’ll be able to do IB. If you don’t know anything about Econ, you’ll be at a loss. I had a prestigious internship that had to do with Econ thank you very much and another internship in a finance office of a local company. </p>
<p>Econ is absolutely a strength of Duke and a popular major. It’s really hard at Duke, but it’s popular and Duke is recruited heavily for IB unlike NU and Vandy. </p>
<p>IB is all about the exit ops, it’s two years of hell and then hello top business school</p>
