The B.A. in economics combines economic science with broad liberal arts training, providing an excellent background for postgraduate work in business, public policy, or law, and also for the student who will enter the labor force upon graduation.
Students pursuing one of the economic majors are strongly encouraged to complete ECON 1010 Introduction to Microeconomics (3 c.h.) and ECON 1020 Introduction to Macroeconomics (3 c.h.) in their freshman year. They are also encouraged to complete ECON 3010 Intermediate Microeconomics (3 c.h.) and ECON 3020 Intermediate Macroeconomics (3 c.h.) by the end of their second year. Finally students are encouraged to complete an introductory course in statistics offered by the Department of Mathematics.
