Economics, BA
This major combines rigorous training both in economic theory and in the application of the tools of economic analysis to critical contemporary issues. Successful candidates for the degree will be well prepared either for graduate school or for employment in business or the public sector.
All majors will complete a four-course sequence which consists of ECON 201 and 202 (in either order), and 301 and 302 (in either order). It is strongly recommended that students take 301 and 302 immediately after 201 and 202. In addition, majors will take ECON 450, which is typically a Fall-only offering. They will select one course in critical studies (320, 350, or 375), and four upper-level economics courses. Finally, ECON 491 is to be taken the Fall Semester of the senior year.
Social Science, BA
This program provides a broad overview of several liberal arts and sciences. Among other purposes, it is useful as pre-law preparation and graduate work in the policy studies areas. This major also prepares students to be eligible for social studies teacher certification at the secondary level.
