Which Commerce area to Major in? (With Engineering)

Doing a double degree (hopefully), so just wondering which commerce area people think would be the best to major in to complement my Engineering degree, for better employment opportunities?
Also when do we have to decide this by?

I can't say I have any expert knowledge in the field, but I would imagine commerce majors of either Management or Business would be most beneficial if you're intending to actually go into engineering.

what kind of engineering are you wanting to do??

for chemical eng and prob civil, definitely finance.
for others specialisations its a bit more debatable.
