Going into the business intelligence (BI) field is an excellent career choice. If there is a specialization in management information systems (MIS), I would go in that direction. Leaders in BI need to have a strong technology foundation but also need to have excellent business skills. If there is not a specialization in MIS, go with a finance concentration and make sure you take elective classes in information systems.
After you complete your MBA and if you have the ability to travel, I would suggest looking for a position with a major consulting firm. Look for a firm that has a strong BI practice. Gartner has a Magic Quadrant for BI consulting firms. Consulting will get you exposure to multiple technologies and industries. Otherwise, focus on companies that have complex and/or large data.
Good luck in your business intelligence career endeavors.
