confidentiality – “marketability” is a funny concept. How marketable is an econ degree? Nursing, Accounting and Engineering are the only degrees I can think of immediately that are actual career training degrees. UCLA does not have accounting per se, so that leaves engineering and nursing if you want a “marketable” degree.

Companies that hire in general business don’t care much about your specific degree says… sure they’d like to see a few econ courses, a couple accounting, maybe one or two math courses… but beyond that, it’s all about whether you are smart, easy to work with (you play well in the sandbox), and hard working.

Which degree exactly says you’re smart, easy to work with, and hard working? Just about any.
