Welcome to the Department of Economics at Purdue University. Situated within the Krannert School of Management, our Department maintains a distinguished legacy of outstanding research and education. Our faculty members are recognized as pioneers in their specialized areas.
The Economics Department provides both undergraduate and graduate degree options. Undergraduate students can choose between two bachelor's programs: a Bachelor of Science (BS) in Economics through the Management School or a Bachelor of Arts (BA) through the College of Liberal Arts. Additionally, we provide an Economics Honors Program, along with Minors in Economics and Business Economics.
Our Department features an honors degree track and collaborates with the university honors college by offering specialized honors courses and thesis guidance. The Economics honors program operates independently from the university honors college, allowing students to pursue one or both honors pathways. For undergraduates seeking a more research-focused academic journey, we offer multiple honors programs designed for driven, high-achieving students.
