Economics and Mathematics

The Economics and Mathematics major has the same common core and sequential character but its quantitative dimension is expanded to become a thematic specialization. Thus this major also provides rigorous and extensive training in mathematics. This major is particularly appropriate for students planning to do graduate work in economics, which frequently demands greater mathematical training than that acquired through the minimum requirements of the Economics major.

Majors in Economics and Mathematics will need an advisor in the Mathematics Department as well as the Economics Department
