The Department of Economics and Business offers three majors: Economics, Business
Administration, and Accounting. Economics emphasizes the application of techniques drawn from economic theory and mathematics that enable students to analyze and solve
business problems and engage in public policy evaluations. Business Administration
emphasizes an introduction to the various business disciplines including accounting, finance, marketing, price theory, and data analysis for problem solving. Accounting
emphasizes generally accepted accounting practices, technical accounting material,
financial analysis, and economic analysis in order to provide students with the ability to understand and function in the business world.
The Department’s courses promote the student’s ability to apply knowledge and develop proficiency in the use of analytical tools for making decisions in business, government, and society. The majors and courses serve as preparation for work in business, government, law, and public service, and
for graduate study.
