Alternatively, you could explore intermediate macroeconomic and microeconomic theory, analyzing factors influencing income, employment, output, pricing, and market outcomes.
The Economics minor offers courses that focus on managerial economics, international economic policy, econometrics, public finance, urban and regional economics, and the economics of terrorism. Each one will broaden your scope of insight and help you become a well-rounded professional working within today’s dynamic economic landscape.
