Would a Ph.D in Social Psychology assist a marketing career?
I am going to U of I for Psychology and Communication. Afterwards, I had initially planned to get a Ph.D in Social Psychology from Stanford or U of I, and then get some work experience, and then get an MBA in Marketing from Kellogg or Stanford or Wharton or something along those lines.
The rationale behind the Ph.D is that it would make me stand out for employers and those tough Kellogg admissions people, and that it would help for my marketing career as well. However, the more I've looked into it, the more people have said that a Ph.D is only good for academia. So should I take the five years and get the Ph.D or just work for a few years after my Bachelor's? In case it matters, I started college early so I will have my Bachelor's by the time I am 20.
