Economics is at the heart of decision-making. It’s an interdisciplinary field that draws upon history, philosophy, psychology, mathematics, sociology, political science and other fields to provide a logical way of looking at issues in business and society.

As an economics major, you’ll explore and engage in practical applications of economics through data analysis, news analysis, case studies and simulations. We’ll use models and analytical tools to explain behavior, understand decisions, scrutinize policies, and offer solutions.
