THE ECONOMICS PROGRAM
The Economics program is designed to prepare students for
professional careers in managerial positions, graduate students in economics or for
related fields such as law, government, administration, education, and others. Positions
in business economics and graduate study require knowledge of economics and the
application of economic tools to analyze problems for decision-making. Students may either
concentrate in economics through the Mitchell College of Business or minor in economics
through the College of Arts and Sciences.
Specific areas of interest not covered by listed courses
may be met by special research programs and guided individual study in ECO 494 (Directed
Study in Economics).
