The Ursinus economics and business administration curriculum provides the theory and analytical background to enable you to move in many directions. The writing, thinking and language skills you develop in a liberal arts curriculum provide the foundation for a broad-based experience you cannot find in a traditional business school. Opportunities abound for our graduates. Within five years, a high percentage of them enroll in graduate or professional school. They work in enterprises such as the Federal Reserve, Big Six accounting firms, banks and pharmaceutical companies.
Every specialization requires a capstone research project.
Few other college programs can match this breadth, and few traditional business majors can offer cutting-edge applications in all these areas. Ursinus is the only East Coast institution to host an annual economics and business administration conference for undergraduates. This conference provides an opportunity for students to present their original research in a professional forum. All Ursinus students learn a foreign language, and our overseas programs open doors to learning and internships in Japan, Europe, Mexico and Australia, to name only a few. With our proximity to Philadelphia, there are many internship and research opportunities in accounting, banking, financial services, the media and such organizations as the U.S. Department of Commerce.
