Economics (ECON)


According to the University of Arkansas' Department of Economics, "Both a social science and a business field, it can be argued that economics has evolved from a 'discipline' to an 'approach' used to study behavior with regards to the use of scarce resources. Students majoring in Economics will find a wide variety of exciting and rewarding career paths open to them. The strong analytical and quantitative training an economics degree provides is prized by employers in industry, consulting, policy analysis and design, government, and academia."
