I mean, my uni's got a (fairly) good science department (including the biggest touchscreen in the world - oh yeah) but I didn't do science.

Maybe he wants to study business, to learn more about his other dad and how to beat him at Xanatos speed chess? It's unlikely he followed Wendy there because he liked her. The opposite is far more plausible, based on the little that we've seen of their interaction. Ray Palmer needn't haggle - there's Rich Uncle Bruceybags for the funding.

If you want to beat someone in Xanatos speed chess, you are not going to get that knowledge by studying business in the classroom. I would argue you need a Law degree so you can think of ways to legally screw people up. Heck, psychology would help you more than business.
