Economics

Economics is a social science that explores how institutions and policies impact the production of goods and services, as well as the distribution of wealth and income.

The strong quantitative and analytical skills gained from an economics degree make graduates highly competitive in fields like banking, finance, insurance, data analysis, marketing, and the public sector. Economics is a great choice for students planning to advance to a bachelor’s or graduate program in areas such as management, law, finance, political science, international relations, planning, or environmental studies.
