That means being able to understand the results that occur when governments, businesses and people make decisions to achieve economic goals. Program type: Major Format: On Campus Est. time to complete: 4 years Credit hours: 120 What is an economics major? Application Deadlines Fall: Aug. 16 Spring: Dec. 15 Summer: May 1 When you study economics, you'll investigate the subject from two perspectives: The view from 30,000 feet, or macroeconomics, covers society-wide issues such as inflation, unemployment and economic growth. You'll also study economics on a closer, or microeconomic, level. You'll learn to analyze product pricing, competition between businesses in an industry, and the effects of regulation. You'll perform wide-ranging quantitative and qualitative analysis of economic and social forces as an economics student. The Economics major is a great launching pad for careers in law, journalism and other fields. If you're interested in pursuing graduate study in economics or actuarial science, consider enrolling in the quantitative track. Accelerated Economics Major Interested in earning a bachelor's and master's degree in as little as five years?
