WHAT WOULD BE THE BEST BUSINESS MAJOR TO COMBINE WITH ENGINEERING, OUT OF…?

Quantitative Finance
Management
Human Resource Management
Corporate Finance
Investment Finance

please give reasons why. Thanks :-)
I have to admit, I’m some-more meddlesome in you do the finance; is it value it as well as where would it lead me?

Management is most relevant to engineering out of your list. eg, project management.
Project management requires engineering background.

If you are an engineer, you rarely deal with finance or investment. Often you are given a budget for your engineering project and you decide how you are going to spend it. Let accountants deal with those. No engineering background needed for managing finance.
If you have engineering/finance background, you’ll probably end up doing finance jobs.

Managing human resources are not directly related to engineering. Dealing with employee complaints, negotiating pays, hiring staff are not engineer’s job. HR managers do not need engineering background.

Other majors you might consider –
Intellectual property lawyers – engineering & law
Insurance auditors – engineering & economics, actuarial studies
