Department of Economics
Undergraduate Programs
At the undergraduate level, we offer both Bachelor of Arts and Bachelor of Sciences degrees, as well as an Economics minor. The Bachelor of Arts and Bachelor of Science degree is designed for those who plan to study economics at the graduate level, or to find jobs working as an economist or in closely related fields. Plus, an economics minor is a great addition for any major.
Graduate Programs
At the graduate level, we offer an MA program in Economics, with an optional concentration in Applied Economics. Because we offer a terminal Masters degree program, we are uniquely equipped to prepare students to face the business world. Our MA program allows you and your academic advisor to tailor a course of study to fits your need, and our MA program in Applied Economics is custom tailored to prepare you for applied careers.
