The
Economics concentration stresses analytical thinking
and concise writing, making it attractive to
potential employers, graduate schools, and law
schools.
Compared to other business concentrations,
economics is less focused on providing specific
technical skills and instead prepares students
for many professional careers since it can be
applied to a wide range of real-world problems.
The preparation provided by this concentration
is flexible, making the student more adaptable
to changing opportunities after graduation.

"The
theory of economics does not furnish
a body of settled conclusions immediately
applicable to policy. It is a method
rather than a doctrine, an apparatus
of the mind, a technique which
helps its possessor to draw correct
conclusions."
