Uraian Tempat

The Department of Economics at Brigham Young University focuses on providing a first-class undergraduate education in the discipline of economics. The core courses are taught using a calculus-based approach. Many of our students pursue graduate work in Business, Law, Medicine, and Economics. Economics examines how societies choose to allocate scarce resources among competing uses. A broad range of contemporary policy issues are studied in fields such as: food, agriculture, and natural resource economics; economic development and growth, international trade and finance, economic history, the organization of industries, the development and efficiency of law, business cycles, labor markets, and public and private finance. Business economists forecast and analyze various aspects of the economy for their employers. They often work for banks, insurance companies, investment firms, and large manufacturing firms. The career of business economics is increasingly recognized as one of the routes to top management (National Association of Business Economists, 1989).
