Economics

Economics is the study of allocating scarce resources among competing needs. Drexel’s Economics concentration is designed for two groups of students: those who wish to prepare for advanced degrees in the field, and those who want a sound business education with a focus on economics.The program places particular emphasis on the application of theory toward the solution of particular problems in such areas as international trade, money and finance, consumer activities, economic development, and other areas.

For permission to substitute other courses for those listed, students should see the department head. For more information about this concentration, contact the Department of Economics and International Business.
