¿Qué aprenderé?

Embrace a major that will take you anywhere through an understanding of how a society uses its limited resources, and how its people deal with the production, distribution and consumption of goods and services. With median salaries ranking among engineers, economics is one of the most in demand majors in today’s job market. Although often thought of in terms of wealth and finance, this skillset is applicable to a variety of disciplines, from business and government to the environment, health care, innovation and more. Economics, at its core, teaches decision making skills, which is valuable to any employer.

Economics is the study of how societies organize themselves to produce goods and services and distribute those services among members of society. Economists use concepts, models and data to analyze efficiency of resource use, fairness of economic outcomes, and development of global and national economies. The Paul College economics program is designed to introduce you to the tools of economic analysis and show you how you can use these tools to better understand real-world situations.

In the Economics B.A. major, you’ll build a powerful platform for launching a career in almost all walks of life. You’ll work with and analyze data, argue logically and persuasively, and communicate these arguments both orally and in writing. You’ll have flexibility in the choice of electives, or you can choose from three specializations: global trade and finance, money and financial markets, public policy and sustainability. An undergraduate major in economics also is excellent preparation for graduate work in economics, law, business administration and international relations.
