Purpose
This specialization is intended to offer students
an opportunity to design unique specializations
that combine Economics with a related discipline.
Students are required to take ECON 3020 and
ECON 3030 (one of these can count toward the
BSBA core), two more advanced Economics courses,
and three courses from their chosen discipline
with a cohesive theme. Selection of specialization
courses must be approved by the advisor and
are subject to the availability of the course
offerings. Students are encouraged to discuss
their individual interests with the advisor
as early in their program as possible to select
the appropriate specialization courses to
complete their program in a reasonable time.
