Economics, B.A Sample Degree Map

The Economics, B.A degree is designed to prepare students to understand and participate in this complex economic world. Economic majors study current economic events and analyze the basis for economic problems and policies. They learn that economics is basically not a technical skill but a way of thinking that enables them to approach many diverse problems and issues in a logical and orderly manner.
