Economics Major
Economics is the analysis of how people and societies choose to use their resources, and is at the centre of how our world operates. A major in Economics gives you knowledge of economic tools and analysis and teaches you how to apply them both in business and policy environments. You will learn how individuals, households, firms and governments interact, and how economies work. You will explore a range of different issues such as labour, health care, poverty, financial investments, production, taxes and government expenditures, and learn how to assess and implement policy change.
