This minor allows students not majoring in economics to master an important and useful set of economics concepts and models. The minor is intended for students who would like to survey topics in economics and who seek an in-depth introduction, at the upper-division level, to how economists reason about various policy issues and economic trends and events. This may be out of interest or because of complementarities with a different major. Students who have taken or who plan to take microeconomic theory (ECO 420K, ECO 420S, or FIN 321K) are advised to consider the Economics Minor as an alternative. Requirements are listed in the table below. Additional requirements may follow the table, so be sure to read the entire page. Some required courses listed below may also satisfy General Education requirements, including Core Curriculum. Students should also review the University's Undergraduate Minor and Certificate Requirements and Policies.
