About the Courses
Every day, people ask: How can I meet my needs with what I have?
Economists ask the same question but on a societal level. In our business-focused economics program, you'll develop tools that draw on social science, mathematics and business. Once you graduate, you'll be able to predict how today's actions affect tomorrow's individuals, businesses, and nations.

Modules
As a student majoring in economics, you'll approach economics from a business perspective. You'll learn to help businesses identify problems and find solutions based on data-tested predictions of human behavior. Because while economics is considered a social science, it's also focused on numbers.
Like all economics students, you'll get the technical skills that prepare you for management. You'll start with core classes in accounting, business law, marketing and other topics. Then, you'll develop deeper skills in statistics, policy and decision-making.
Econ majors combine analytical thinking, quantitative reasoning and excellent communication skills to convey their arguments for others. Those skills are in demand and prepare you for a wide range of careers. Economics majors pursue careers in business, government, law, international affairs, public administration and education.
