The majors in business administration and in economics foster an understanding and appreciation of economic forms of explanation, training students in economics theory and policy. At the same time, these majors prepare students to serve as principled, globally-minded business professionals, able to bridge management cultures and operate as key players in international networks. Small classes permit the one-on-one development of key statistical techniques, communication skills, and creative entrepreneurship necessary today around the world. Regular internships provide opportunities to integrate practice and theory.

Job and Further Study Opportunities

Students completing majors in business and economics are ready to continue their studies in Masters of Business or Economics Ph.D. programs. With their strong statistical background, as well as their expertise in management, students find opportunities in business, finance, marketing firms, and state, international, and not-for-profit institutions demanding sophisticated data analysis and forecasts. 

What macroeconomics and microeconomics can really give the student is an attitude, a perspective. Microeconomics is about how people make choices on the market and in business. Macro is completely different. It’s about how individual choices add up, and how they form major trends in the economy.
