Mathematical Economics, B.A. Specialization in
|
|
 Return to: Program Information
The B.A. specialization in mathematical economics is substantially more
rigorous in quantitative and mathematical training than the B.A.
specialization in economics. It aims to address the needs of
mathematically oriented students who intend to pursue graduate studies
in economics or work for businesses seeking to employ young economists
with a solid foundation in quantitative skills.
The B.A. specialization in mathematical economics
includes all of the existing requirements for a B.A. specialization in
economics, with the exception of having to take either ECO 180, Introduction to Mathematical Economics or ECO 182, Introduction to Econometrics instead of ECO 184. In addition, the program requires 18 semester hours in mathematics and statistics, starting with MATH 71, Analytic Geometry and Calculus I and MATH 72, Analytic Geometry and Calculus II serving as prerequisites or corequisites for MATH 117, Statistics for Economics I, MATH 118, Statistics for Economics II, and MATH 135A, Linear Algebra.
