ECONOMICS
(Bachelor of Science)
Economics is the study of how people and societies make choices to
accomplish individual and social purposes. In this major, students
learn about individual, national and global economic behavior, and
then apply theoretical insights and methods of analysis to
contemporary challenges involving crime, social justice, and the
investigation of fraud and corruption.
Credits required: 36 or more depending upon the completion of
prerequisites (if needed).
Prerequisites: ECO 101 is a prerequisite for required courses in the
Economics major and also fulfills one of the College’s general
education requirements in the social sciences. Transfer students who
have completed 18 credits or more in economics and/or accounting
are waived from the ECO 101 prerequisite.
Students considering graduate programs in economics should consider
additional mathematics and statistics courses as free electives, part of a
minor, or as electives within Concentration A. Concentration A includes
MAT 241 Calculus I and MAT 242 Calculus II as course options. MAT
241 requires MAT 141 as a prerequisite, which can fulfill general
education requirements in mathematics. Students are strongly advised to
discuss graduate school options early in their progression through the
major.
