Bachelor in Economics

Economics examines the production, distribution, and consumption of goods and services, combining microeconomic analysis of individual and firm behavior with macroeconomic study of national and global economic systems. Coursework typically spans mathematical economics, statistics and econometrics, monetary and fiscal policy, international trade, and economic growth theory, giving students tools to interpret economic indicators and evaluate policy proposals. Students build skills in quantitative reasoning, data analysis, and economic modeling that transfer to careers in finance, consulting, and public administration. Graduates often move into banking, investment analysis, corporate finance, or government economic planning roles, or pursue graduate studies in economics or related quantitative fields.
