In this program, students will learn how decisions made by consumers, firms and governments about the use of resources — like time and money — affect business. They will study economic factors that all businesses face, like supply and demand, inflation, international trade, unemployment, and governmental policies.
As a business economics major, students will develop strong critical thinking, analytical and research skills. They will also build a solid foundation in all areas of business — including marketing, finance and management — through several hands on learning programs that give students the opportunity to learn business by doing business.
When choosing the general option, students will have the flexibility to expand their knowledge and marketability by taking courses, inside or outside the business program, that complement their economics studies.
