Resources for Wharton Undergraduates & Alumni
Concentrations and Employment

INTRODUCTION

We encourage students to choose a concentration which truly interests them. Since Wharton students receive such a broad undergraduate education encompassing both business and liberal arts courses, many career options are open to students from all concentrations. However, we are often asked what specific jobs students with various concentrations have taken after graduation. Below is a compilation of positions that recent Wharton undergraduates from various concentrations have pursued. The vast majority of positions listed are from students graduating with a single concentration. We have not found that dual concentrations increase students' employability substantially.

Note: There is no list for finance concentrators because it would be overwhelmingly long. However, feel free to look at our annual Career Plans Surveys which breaks out all positions graduates have taken by concentration.
