Abstract
The purpose of this paper was to compare employment outcomes for individuals who majored in economics and business administration. Economics majors were more likely to work in a job unrelated to the degree field than business administration majors. Degree mismatch was the result of career aspirations and changes in career interests, particularly for economics majors, and not due to a lack of demand for graduates. Economics majors earned higher wages, and mismatch had a smaller effect on wages for economics majors than business majors.
