ECONOMICS MAJORS
The Economics Majors
The Department of Economics offers two traditional economics degrees. The B.A. degree in economics is broadly-based in the liberal arts. It incorporates the core of the economics discipline with the liberal arts, including a foreign language.
The Bachelor of Science degree is somewhat more focused on the field of economics as an applied field of study. They are both excellent preparation utensils for graduate work in law, business and public policy and for obtaining employment upon graduation. When completed in combination with a minor in mathematics both traditional majors provide students with a sufficient preparation for graduate work in economics.
For those interested in eventually earning a Ph.D. in economics, a double major in economics and mathematics or the combined economics-mathematics Bachelor of Science degree offered in conjunction with the Department of Mathematics would be in excellent preparation.
Politics, Philosophy and Economics Major
The Politics, Philosophy and Economic major is an interdisciplinary degree that provides students with the analytic tools from the disciplines of political science, economics and philosophy, and also teaches students to make connections across disciplines and to keep multiple perspectives in mind when analysing complex social phenomena.
