Economics Combined Major

Requirements for the Combined Major

Students who are pursuing a combined major with Economics and another field must complete all requirements for the Economics major with the following modifications: Students pursuing a combined major need only complete two upper level economics courses as opposed to four.  The two upper-level course selected must engage with issues at the intersection of the two disciplines being combined.  Similarly, the senior seminar paper (and honors thesis if one is done) must also engage with an issue at the intersection of the two disciplines. If a senior seminar course is being taken in the other major, the student can choose between taking the Senior Seminar in Economics in addition or replacing the Senior Seminar with a third upper-level economics course.
