So, if you are keen to explore a career in business, read on to find out which options in business studies are most sought after by employers.

Accounting and finance is a significant area of business studies. Imagine running a business, but you fail to keep track of the total revenue generated, the taxes involved and additional costs. Your business is bound to experience a downfall. By learning accounting and business, you can use this knowledge to launch your own business. Above all, you can also work as an accountant, auditor, finance manager, financial analyst, and even as an anti-money laundering specialist.
2. Business Law
Business law establishes rules for different business organisations, such as partnerships and corporations, to effectively run the business. Many business organisations typically encounter legal issues involving breach of contract, copyright, trademarks and more. By graduating with a business law degree, you can become a business lawyer, paralegal, operations manager, risk analyst and management consultant. It is a highly valued degree by corporate companies.
3. Econometrics and Business Statistics
Majoring in econometrics and business statistics in business studies means learning to predict the general direction of the economy and its impact on business operations. You will learn to gather and interpret data so that you can facilitate the decision-making process in business, policies or investments. This information is crucial to almost all primary sectors and business leaders. Also, you can opt to work as an economist, policy analyst, data analyst, financial risk analyst etc.
4. Management Studies
Running a business can be lucrative, but what's more pivotal is managing the business. From planning up to resolving issues and finding solutions, you will learn the tools and skills to strengthen the business.
