What is a better degree to have Business or Accounting?

What is the best undergraduate business degree besides accounting?

• All I hear is that accounting is the best degree, however I have no interest in obtaining an accounting or finance degree for that matter. Right now my major is business administration and I feel that I am getting a great education on how businesses operate. Will a business administration degree prevent me from high earning potential and executive jobs? What are jobs like in business administration? Are there going to be jobs in the business administration field? Are the chances good that I will be able to get an entry level job somewhere? Thanks for all the answers!! I am thinking that business administration is a very broad degree, so it should open up doors for an entry level position somewhere. Let me know what you think!! Also, I plan on getting an MBA after I work for a few years...

• Answer:

  Good for you for not following the money. Follow what you will enjoy and you'll be much better at it (and probably earn more money simply because you'll be good at it). Business Administration doesn't prevent you from earning, but I'd highly recommend going for and MBA as you'll get more specific.
