Economics
Economics is a social science which studies particular aspects of human society such as consumption, production, and exchange. It is concerned with how and when markets work well. It analyzes macroeconomic variables such as inflation and economic growth for their effect on general business conditions.
An economics minor is a logical combination with a major in Business Administration to provide a foundation for a career in banking, insurance, financial services, and brokerage firms. An economics minor helps provide a foundation for a wide variety of graduate studies including economics, labor relations, business administration, and law.
