Minor in Economics

Economics students learn the proper analytical, ethical and oral communication skills necessary for a solid foundation in economics and business principles.

The study of economics is a systematic analysis of real-world issues that prepares students for careers in both the private and public sectors as well as for graduate and doctoral studies.

Economics students are interested in diverse topics, including business opportunities analysis, economic development of third-world nations, environmental protection, policy evaluation, urban and regional planning, international trade and entrepreneurship.

Students are prepared for graduate or law school, as well as careers advising on international trade, policies in education and environmental protection, and equitable tax systems.
