Curriculum Changes - Department of Economics

The Undergraduate Program in the Department of Economics is undergoing substantial changes this semester that you should be aware of.  We have revised our Bachelor of Arts degree requirements and are now offering a Bachelor of Science degree. 

All students who officially declare ECON as their major after the end of the Fall 2015 schedule adjustment period (which ended on Sept 14th) will be required to complete the new major requirements and will need to select either the BA or BS track.

Students who declared ECON as their major for Fall 2015 or earlier have the option to complete the “old major requirements” which were in place when you declared, OR you may choose to switch to the new curriculum and complete either the BA or BS track. 

For detailed information regarding the new major requirements visit http://ter.ps/ECONreqs

Current ECON majors who are interested in switching to the new curriculum should visit http://ter.ps/ECONswitch for detailed instructions on how to make the switch. 


Important Note: If you are planning on graduating in May 2016, it is likely in your best interest to complete the old major requirements.
