Welcome

The economics curriculum is designed to provide students with a basic understanding of the nature and functioning of the economic system, define criteria for assessing efficiency in the provision of goods and services, investigate and assess the operation of economic institutions, and evaluate alternative techniques intended to increase economic efficiency and equity.

While not oriented toward providing students with vocational skills, the discipline does emphasize the operation of the economic environment and therefore would be useful to students contemplating careers in business, government, or teaching. Students majoring in economics are encouraged to complete a broad range of courses and participate in related academic experiences. Students should work closely with their advisers in planning programs suited to their needs and interests. Students should be aware that many careers require graduate training.
