LEARNING OUTCOMES

The educational goals for this major are as follows:

  • You will identify existing standard economic theory, its criticism and alternatives.
  • You will employ verbal, written, graphical, and mathematical skills to assess and communicate economic information.
  • You will examine economic trends and policies using the skills developed in the previous educational goal.
  • You will autonomously develop methods for managing knowledge, useful for professional development and to undertake education at a higher level.

Learning Environment

In keeping with our听recognition of听the听importance of interdisciplinary thinking,听we encourage you to incorporate your other interests into the major, and听more than half of our students听choose to听double major in another discipline, including Finance, Global Communications,听French Studies, and Psychology.听With many of our graduates now working听in听the government or in international organizations听like听the OECD and JP Morgan Chase, while听others听have been accepted into听diverse听graduate programs at schools like the University of Cambridge and Yale, you鈥檒l soon discover that no matter what you pursue,听Economics听can provide听a useful place from which to launch your future.听
