Students are required to perform mathematical calculations to prepare written summaries and reports on economic issues. Economics issues tend to involve complex relationships which challenge and develop students intellectual skills. Group projects encourage teamwork and the development of the social skills necessary to be successful in the business world. This course will be presented through lectures, audio-visual aids, and class discussions of current economic issues. Students are encouraged to ask questions and discuss the material presented in class.
Faculty is encouraged to establish attendance requirements in each course.
Each faculty member will inform students of any course attendance policy at the initial class meeting. Students are responsible for understanding the attendance policy for each course in which they enroll and for meeting the attendance requirements. Failure to meet the attendance requirements in a course may lower a grade. Students must officially withdraw from a course before the official drop date to automatically receive a grade of W. Students will be counted absent from class meetings missed, beginning with the first official day of classes. Students, whether present or absent, are responsible for all material presented or assigned for a course, and will be held accountable for such materials in the determination of course grades.
