The discipline of Economics is unique in stressing the behavior and perspectives of the individual, while maintaining a simultaneous focus on the public interest. The skills and analysis that are gained through this unusual approach are valuable to the student across a very broad range of fields.

The Minor in Economics provides an excellent background for work in business fields from banking and finance to accounting. The Minor is equally appropriate for work in the public sector at the federal, state, or local level, and as preparation for graduate school in business administration, economics, law, or international affairs.
