Differences in University Majors

[Pistol Pete]

I recently was rejected for a major that would have allowed me to study in a program based around management, stuff like accounting, finanace or international business.

I may have an oppurtunity to attend the school studying economics.

Can anyone who has experience in University with these maybe outline the key differences, also which has better prospects for jobs after school and whether it's worthwhile to study economics.

Also, if you studied either of these, please state what you liked or disliked and maybe even talk about the experience as a whole.

Thanks.
