not much-I'd go with the marketing degree

I'd go with Marketing. It's much more fun and creative, whereas Human Resources is rather bland and boring. There's not much room for creativity there.

human resource degree like industrial psychology will give you a managerial position in any of the biggest corporation around the globe. you can be a HRD- manager, you can also work in the bank and any offices. afterall you are a degree holder! so you have all the privileges marketing is good too!!!

I have a degree in Human Resource Manage. I also have a degree in Business Management. (I have an MBA too, but who is counting?) First off, HR people, unless you get high up in a major corp (which often means you need a Master's and possibly a law degree as well) do not make a great deal of money, usually, especially starting out...but that is the same for marketing as well. Typically, HR majors who want to work in that field get jobs as recruiters right out of college. This is a cool job. You are pretty much selling jobs. You get to go to career fairs and things like that. I think it would be fun. However, a common misconception is that HR people make hiring decisions for companies. This is just not the case. Well, it may be the case for positions that require no skill or have no competition, but for skilled and competitive positions, managers make the decisions, HR just screens the people. HR has become a safety vale, more or less. Due to employment law, our sue happy society and other factors, the HR position has become an organizations primary CYA mechanism. I don't know that one degree is better than the other. It depends on what you want to do, in the end, I guess. Both degrees build a foundation for success. Both degrees provide you a foundation of education reguarding general business practice, which is marketable. However, neither degree provides you with a specific skill that an organization needs. (trust me, I know...I hae been there) I don't believe one decision is better than the other. Each degree program is respectable, relevant and marketable. Beyond college, continued education and career experience will become much more important. By gaining either degree, you will have put yourself in a position to become successful, which is what we all want, right?
