Economics is offered with a Bachelor of Arts and a Bachelor of Science in the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences and a Bachelor of Science in the College of Business. Planning is important since degree requirements are quite specific and differ for each college. Economics faculty and course descriptions are the same for all three programs. The Department of Economics at Arizona State University welcomes all Economics majors. There are currently about 200 juniors and seniors majoring in Economics.
Students vary in their training and interest.
Some are studying economics as part of their overall business or liberal arts education. Others view their undergraduate study in economics as preparation for law school. Still others plan to pursue careers as professional economists in government, industry or university teaching and research. Whatever your interests or career goals, the Department of Economics is committed to providing you with a first-class education in economics. The Department is considered one of the premier teaching departments on the ASU campus.
