Choosing uni course advice

Hi everyone

I am in year 12 and currently I am trying to choose between doing Economics or Economics management in university.My question is that does E&M have lower job opportunities than doing Economics?I like E&M more because it focuses more on business strategies and the decision making behind it.
Thank you

Hi everyone

Any advice is appreciated.
Thank you

Hi, @parallel-burden your like for E&M will help with your studies in the future as you have already differentiated your interests and dislikes. I do think having a close look on the university website at course modules will help with decision making as well.

Go to some Open Days, listen to the different course presentations, ask questions about the jobs/careers that their recent graduates have gone to. And you might like to look at something different to Economics or Management as both involve maths and stats. and 'I don't particularly like Economics' isn't a promising start.
