Bachelor in Wirtschaftswissenschaften

Economics majors at Stonehill learn to critically evaluate individual and group behavior, and the resulting outcomes, in the context of global scarcity. Stonehill’s economics majors launch myriad careers at the intersection of finance and human behavior.

Our Economics Department, both in terms of curriculum and other learning experiences, provides students with the foundation they need to apply theory to conventional economic issues and explore contemporary research into human behavioral puzzles. As students develop their ability to solve problems analytically, our faculty challenge them to form their own testable hypotheses, draw inferences from data, and communicate their analysis clearly in speech and writing. Our flexible economics degree enables students to design a curriculum around their interests and future goals, including a graduate degree in public policy, business, or law, or a career in industry, financial markets, the nonprofit sector, or public policy.
