Bachelor of Science in Economics
B.S.: Math 1404, 1411; Economics 1311, 3312, 3320, 3327 or PSY 3326, 3328, 3340, 4325, 4328 and seven additional upper level elective courses in Economics. Students may also count BUS 3310, BUS 3314 and ACCT 5323 towards their upper level electives requirement. It is strongly recommended that students complete the math sequence (Math 1404 and 1411) by their sophomore year, and complete the quantitative methods sequence (ECO 3327 or PSY 3326 and ECO 3328) no later than their Junior Year. Internships are strongly recommended. Students intending to pursue a PhD in Economics will find the B.S. degree or a double major in Economics and Mathematics to be desirable for their preparation. Consult department faculty for advice concerning preparation for graduate studies in Economics.
