Department of Economics

Economics is the study of how people, households, businesses, and governments make choices, and why those choices matter.  Our Economics program teaches students to ask sharp questions and work with real data to understand everyday life.  Graduates pursue careers and graduate study in finance, policy, law, business, research, education, and beyond.  The Economics department offers both a Bachelor of Arts (B.A.) and a Bachelor of Science (B.S.) in Economics.  Students are able to tailor their program to their interests and are thus able to prepare themselves for a wide variety of post-graduation options.

The Economics Department also offers a minor for those students from other departments that wish to broaden their undergraduate experience while bolstering their knowledge of economics.  The minor allows students to prepare themselves for the business world or graduate work with a series of courses in economics while having a major in just about any other department at the university.
