Economics BS

This program is designed to meet the requirements of AACSB International (the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business), the University of Wyoming, and the College of Business. 

With approval of the department chair, students may substitute work in certain areas of accounting, agricultural economics, business administration, history, political science, finance, mathematics, statistics, or law for 6 hours of the 4000-level economics electives. 

This program allows considerable flexibility for the student to specialize in interdisciplinary study. For example, the student can be advised on selecting upper-level division courses for pre-law study, political economy, environmental and natural resources, women’s studies, and international studies. 

Students who intend to continue in graduate work should give special attention to courses in economic theory, statistics, and mathematics. Those planning a career in mathematical economics or econometrics should consult the department head regarding the mathematics and statistics requirements in these fields of study.
