The economy is the central focal point of the running of our society's business endeavors. By understanding the production, distribution, and consumption of wealth along with their financial implications, you’ll learn the skills to be a valued advisor in a business or governmental setting. As an Economics major, you'll obtain the analytical tools to forecast and understand a variety of social, political, and business issues through internships and practical research. Economics is a popular choice as a double major with Finance, Mathematics, or International Studies. Economics is one of the most popular minors at the University.
What will you study
Your studies will focus on the production, distribution, and consumption of wealth. You will gain an understanding of how society distributes scarce resources such as land, labor, raw materials, and machinery to produce goods and services. Research assignments will teach you to collect and analyze data, monitor economic trends, and develop forecasts. You’ll see how economists may analyze energy costs, inflation, interest rates, imports, or employment levels, and then use their understanding of economic relationships to advise businesses and other organizations. You may also be a part of the Department of Economics' joint research project with the Middle East Council of American Chambers of Commerce (MECACC).
