Diploma iz Ekonomije

Economics affects all aspects of life. More than prices and money, economics is the study of how people, households, businesses, and governments make choices under scarcity. Learn how to think critically, make informed decisions, and apply your analytical abilities to issues affecting individuals, businesses, governments, and entire nations. Pursue a career in banking, insurance, finance, consulting, or government or prepare to enter a professional or graduate program in law, foreign service, labor relations, or business. This major is offered in the College of Business and the College of Arts and Sciences.

Two Pathways For Economics

You can major or minor in economics in the College of Arts and Sciences or College of Business. Each pathway prepares you for your future career and offers the same required courses in calculus, macroeconomics, microeconomics, and statistics. When choosing a college, think about your other interests, the general requirements of the college, and available scholarships. View the four-year plans or meet with an academic advisor to see which option is best for you.

College of Arts and Sciences

Pathway provides flexibility to pair your interests in the humanities, sciences, and social sciences with economics. Beyond the required economics courses, you will choose from and learn about a wide range of areas. Economics majors in the college often double majors or have multiple minors.

College of Business

Pathway provides students with a wide range of introductory business courses such as accounting, finance, and analytics. Economics majors in business often also major in finance.
