Consumer Economics Specialization
This track employs microeconomic principles to examine consumer behavior within household, policy, and marketplace contexts. It equips students for doctoral studies or research-focused careers analyzing consumer choices, financial management, and family-oriented economic policies. This research-intensive specialization mandates completion of a thesis project.
