Undergraduate Economics Program

The Department of Economics offers a major in economics that begins with intermediate theory courses in the two broad areas of microeconomics and macroeconomics. These areas are introduced in either of the lower division courses, Economics 1 or Economics 2. Students who major in economics have the opportunity to take a range of courses to expose themselves to various kinds of economic analysis.

The Economics Department has developed goals and objectives for student learning in the department. The learning goals for Economics majors can be found on the following webpage: Learning Goals for Economics Majors
