Product Description

A Major in Economics concentrates on building broad-based rather than job-specific skills i.e., it is a Liberal Arts rather than a professional or vocational degree. An in-depth study of economic issues and methods will enhance many career paths. Policy oriented courses are particularly helpful for the later study of law or politics; theory courses sharpen reasoning skills as well as adding depth to policy analysis and are especially important for the later study of business, finance and accounting through an MBA degree; and a Major in Economics is an obvious prerequisite for graduate studies in Economics.
