Special Note on Core Curriculum Requirements

It is recommended that economics majors take Cs150 Introduction to Computers and Information Processing as part of their core natural science requirement and Ma123-124 Elementary Calculus, I and II, to satisfy the core mathematics requirement (although Ma105-106 Finite Mathematics, I and II, is an acceptable alternative). Students majoring in mathematical economics, however, must complete Ma123-124 Elementary Calculus, I and II, in fulfillment of the core mathematics requirement.

Special Note on Major Requirements

Students planning on graduate work in economics should include Ec301 Mathematical Economics and Ec302 Elements of Econometrics among their economics electives.
