Programs and Advising

A degree in economics prepares students for employment in the private and public sectors both domestically and internationally as economists, analysts, managers, executives, and teachers, and also prepares students to undertake graduate studies in economics, law, and/or business administration. By grouping complimentary courses into concentrated area, students can select studies from a variety of applied, theoretical, and quantitative areas and plan a program around individual interests.
