BA Economics - Mathematics

Economics is the study of how choices and decisions are made when resources are limited. It’s a broad field that helps explain the world around us, from the inner workings of large institutions to individual human behaviors.

As an economics major in the College of Arts and Sciences, you’ll look at real-world problems through an economic lens and learn how to find solutions that make economies more productive and sustainable. You’ll also be conducting original research during your senior capstone course, giving you the opportunity to apply what you’ve learned about economic theory and analysis to a topic of your choice.
