Economics Minor

Jobs in economics are expected to grow 14 percent in the next decade—much more than the average of all other occupations--and our program will prepare you for success.

Our Economics minor provides you an understanding of structures and processes including economic growth and productivity, unemployment and inflation, taxation and public expenditure, supply and demand, international trade and finance, labor-management cooperation and competition.

You will find a minor in Economics to be especially complementary to majors in marketing, mathematics, politics, international business, community health, management and more. It is also excellent preparation for pursuing an advanced degree.
