Economics is the study of allocating scarce resources among competing needs. Drexel's economics concentration is designed for two groups of students: those who wish to prepare for advanced degrees in the field, and those who want a sound business education with a focus on economics. The program places particular emphasis on the application of theory toward the solution of particular problems in such areas as international trade, money and finance, consumer activities, economic development, and other areas.
Economics graduates are employed in private industry and by many government agencies. A significant number of students go on to do graduate work, not only in economics but also in law.
