B.A. in Economics

Duquesne University

Economics is a social science that employs logical reasoning to describe how people, firms, and governments balance their desires with their limitations. While pursuing a B.A. in Economics at Duquesne, you'll learn what motivates people and how often-conflicting values affect behavior in the marketplace. From individuals to groups, and corporations to governments, people behave differently - and a well-trained student of economics can accurately analyze those differences and their effects. Economics majors go on to succeed in a wide variety of careers, prepared to work as research and financial analysts in large and small businesses, consulting firms, and at all levels of government. The degree also provides an excellent foundation for graduate study, especially in law, business (MBA), public policy, and economics.
