What is the difference between corporate and quantitative finance? what jobs can you get?

Hi, i plan to study Bachelor of Finance at Australian National University, however i have to choose to major in either of "corporate finance and investment management" or "quantitative finance". From what i udnerstand, corporate finance is more theoritical and has to do with business financing while quantitative finance has to do with math. could someone tell me more about both subjects? what kind of job can you get after studying each of these?

FYI I have a very strong mathematical background but i dont like computer programing. I did very well (not bragging) in all the other subjects in highschool as well. I do have interest in math but i want to study somehting that would help me secure a gd job. what do you suggest?

I've been a finance student for some time, let's see if I can help you.

Quantitative Finance is more math related than Corporate finance. I don't know if 'majors' are the same in Australia as they are here but, when I read about quantitative finance programs in America they are usually Financial Engineering programs. Graduates from these programs tend to take jobs as "Quants" for large stock market brokers and can earn over $750,000 USD a year.
