Economics

Economics is widely thought of as the theory of business. Economics is a social science with a wide range of applications for business and public administration. It includes, but is not limited to, the behavior of the consumer, the pricing and output decisions of the firm and policy considerations of the government.

It provides a general overview for those students intending to go into private or public life and can be particularly helpful in developing critical thinking skills. Career paths for economics majors include entering into business, financial institutions, government, public service or graduate work in business, economics, or law.
