Why Choose an Economics Minor?
This minor is designed for students who wish to gain a deeper understanding of how economics impacts our daily lives and shapes the world around us. Economics proves to be an invaluable addition to the study of any discipline, from anthropology to zoology and everything in-between. Each of us makes many decisions on a daily basis that ultimately determine the course of our lives and affect the lives of the people around us. Economics students learn to look at this constellation of decisions and understand it based on the individual incentives that people face.
The Economics minor helps to prepare students for the world in which they are entering by providing them with a framework that they can use to understand the world around them, the analytic tools to figure out emerging trends in consumer data, and the ability to understand the trade-offs necessary when making difficult decisions. This helps students function better in any job but also as members of society.
