The B.A. in economics incorporates a balance of economic theory, mathematical tools, and field applications.
Students majoring in economics choose one of three tracks: business, policy, or analytical. They complete three sets of requirements for the major: mathematics and statistics courses that provide the skills needed for understanding economic theory and data; economic theory courses that provide the tools needed for analyzing economic issues; and field courses that apply economic tools to business, social, or specialized analytical issues. The applied field course requirement varies, depending on a student's choice of track.
The Bachelor of Arts with a major in economics requires a minimum of 120 s.h., including 31-32 s.h. of work for the major.
Career Advancement
The Bachelor of Arts degree provides an excellent educational background for a variety of positions in business and government. Graduates find employment in banking, financial institutions, industrial firms, and trade organizations and in federal, state, and local government agencies dealing with economic policy, regulation, and analysis. An undergraduate degree in economics also prepares students for the study of law and for graduate study in fields such as economics, business management, public administration, hospital and health administration, urban and regional planning, transportation, journalism, political science, and statistics.
