Economics
Economics students begin their first year of studies with courses that provide a foundation in the principles of microeconomics and macroeconomics. In their second year, students build on their foundation of economic principles and take additional economics courses to broaden their knowledge. Students will be able to select from a number of economic theory and specific field courses. Third and fourth year courses offer specialized topics to provide students with a broad understanding of the discipline.
