Program Overview

The B.S. degree program in economics provides a solid foundation in the basic skills and analytical techniques that are necessary to understand changes in the broad economic environment and be able to formulate decisions as consumers, resource owners, and managerial personnel in business, government, and nonprofit organizations.

Both concentrations prepare students for entry-level management positions in business, government, and nonprofit organizations, and provide excellent preparation for graduate work in business administration, economics, and law.
