Bachelor of Arts - Economics - General Economics
Economics is the study of how to critically evaluate problems and make well-reasoned decisions. As such, the Economics major is particularly well-suited to prepare students for career challenges in the 21st century by helping them develop important skills. These skills include the ability to apply a general framework of analysis for solving real-world problems, conduct mathematical and statistical analysis, work with data to address specific issues, and effectively communicate with others in both written and oral forms.
Students can earn either a B.S. or a B.A. degree in Economics. The major offers the flexibility to select a set of courses that simultaneously satisfy the requirements of the major while allowing a focus on a specific area, such as business or pre-law. The curriculum is highlighted by a senior project required of Economics majors, which provides each student the opportunity to collaborate with an individual faculty member on a research project of their own choosing.
The program requires 35 credit hours, allowing for flexibility in considering a second major or minor as a way to expand career possibilities and distinguish themselves from their peers. The list of majors that students most frequently combine with Economics includes Business Administration, Mathematics, Computer Science, and Political Science.
