Affirming the mission of the College, the Economics department enables students and faculty to collaboratively research and understand complex questions from a diversity of economic perspectives. The department uses appropriate theories and empirical methods to foster an active engagement with local and global communities.
The Business Economics major provides an academically challenging program within the context of the liberal arts for those who desire a sophisticated understanding of business operation and an appreciation for the social and economic complexities of the world in which firms operate. The major is intended for students who plan to enter the business world directly after graduation, but it is sufficiently flexible to accommodate those who may choose graduate study. Those interested in international business should consider the special recommendations that pertain to them below. Students who desire a more policy-oriented major should consider the Economics major also offered by the Department of Economics.
The requirements for the major are formulated to acquaint the student with the structure and organization of the business firm, and to provide a framework of theoretical and quantitative analysis necessary for business decision-making. For students who qualify, the Business Intern program provides the opportunity to gain experience in working for a business firm as part of the academic program.
