Requirements

The Quantitative Economics and Econometrics major provides a quantitative treatment of Economics. Students will be required to take, among their electives, one course each that applies the two branches of quantitative learning: calculus and econometrics (or a single course that applies both). This major will broaden students’ possibilities by giving them a firm foundation in quantitative economics, an important field within the discipline of economics.

Courses in Group A have a prerequisite of MAT 112 or a more advanced calculus course. Courses in Group B have a prerequisite of ECO 230.
