A major in the Economics Department is required to complete
at least 24 credits of advanced work in Economics, including
12 credits of the following:
Economics 101, 102, 116, 117, 118, 123, 124, 125, 132. (It
is strongly recommended that students who intend to go on
to graduate school or to become professional economists
complete Economics 101, 102, 117, 118, 123, 124.) One course
from the Social Science 200 series is required. Sociology,
Political Science, History, Mathematics and Business are
recommended distributions.
Students preparing to teach in the field of Economics on
the secondary school level should consult the Teaching and
Learning section for further requirements.
Economics majors are encouraged to develop specific career
objectives while pursuing undergraduate studies. Departmental
advisers will assist students in exploring career possibilities
and in devising a personalized plan of study that will best
prepare them for their career goals.
Recommended Course of Studies
(A student's program of study may be lengthened to the extent
that the student is placed in proficiency mathematics courses
and the English Department Writing Program; see p. 24 in the
Undergraduate Bulletin 2000-2002.)
