The economics program equips students to utilize fundamental managerial and macroeconomic theories to address modern economic and business challenges. Learners can select from several pathways: a standard track (27 economics credit hours), a combined approach (pairing economics with finance, math, or statistics), a business analytics focus, an international business specialization, or the Heath Integrated Business and Engineering concentration. Course offerings, including electives in the traditional track, explore diverse areas like industrial organization, public finance, and specialized economic fields spanning international, quantitative, monetary, urban, environmental, labor, and health economics. Graduates enter careers across business sectors, consulting, government agencies, and various other industries. This curriculum also serves as strong preparation for advanced studies in economics, business administration, public policy, and legal education. Those aiming for economics graduate programs should consider the quantitative economics and mathematics combined option.
