As an economics major, you will master the analytical tools necessary to evaluate private business decisions and government policies. Your assignments will prepare you for a career in industry or in public service. The diversity of your course work will, among many other things, teach you to recognize the influence of taxes and government spending on the economy, to measure movements in interest rates, to understand policies made by the Federal Reserve Bank, to determine the value of international currencies, to interpret the influence of events in Eastern Europe on the United States economy, and to evaluate the influence of advertising on consumer behavior.
