Program description
Economics is the social science that provides understanding, meaning and relevance of human action under conditions of scarcity. In other words, the study of economics enables a more effective use of scarce resources such as people’s time and talents, land, buildings, equipment, tools on hand, and the knowledge of how to combine them to create products and services to satisfy human wants. Economics is a value-free science. It never tells people how to act, it merely shows how they need to act to attain specific results.
This major would be well suited to those who are interested in policy work, economic aspects of international trade, economic forecasting and economic consulting.
As an economics major you can also choose a minor to enhance your knowledge in a secondary line of study. Many minors complement economics well such as accounting, family and small business management, fintech and financial innovation, marketing, math, supply chain and operations management, agricultural economics, ag enterprise management, environmental studies, indigenous governance, and international management.
Why take economics at the Dhillon School of Business?
By adding an economics major to your business education, you will learn key theories of economics and strengthen your quantitative skills while also acquiring foundational management and business concepts. Here you’ll explore the theoretical roots of business and acquire the important conceptual knowledge and skills to contribute effectively to an organization.
Many of our students also enrol in co-operative education while at the Dhillon School of Business. Co-op allows you to get paid work experience before you graduate and can even help you land a job immediately after graduation.
