or

Should I double major in Marketing and Psychology and later get a double master's degree in Industrial Engineering and MBA or Finance?

Answer 1

It depends on whether you think you'll really go back and do a masters at the end of a degree.  If you think theres a chance that after the 3 or 4 years you'll just want to go out and get a job, the first one sounds more impressive and might look better on a CV, becuse engineering is fairly highly regarded (not that marketing and psychology arent but the other just sounds meatier as a degree) , and youll still get the psychology experience you want.

Only risk i can see is that you'll do the marketing and psy, then decide you're done with education and leave, and had you done the other one you'd have a better qualification.

So basically, if you're certain that you're in for the long haul and prepared to do the normal degree and then the masters, the 2nd one will obviously be better because its a masters, and itll be in something repected such as engineering or finance.

If however you think 3 years will be enough for your brain and your bank account to handle, the MBA in enginneering and marketing with the bonus bits on the side will be a worthy substitute.

Good luck with whatever you choose!

Answer 2

Ditch the pysch degree its a waste of time.  Good choice with Eng. but make sure you know what its like to be a industrial eng.  You will be spending long hours in a cubicle.  Really research what you want to do.  I know plenty of eng. that loved the  cubicle or office.  I hate it.
