The study of Economics offers students insight into some of the most fundamental issues that the societies are facing in today’s world such as what goods and services should we produce, how should they be produced, and how should they be distributed around the world? Economists try to understand the causes and effects of unemployment, inflation, poverty, economic growth, and income distribution, among other pertinent fiscal issues. An Economics degree opens the door to a world of opportunities for the students. Economics is an outstanding preparation for a career in banking, finance, business, policy analysis, international relations, or any other field that requires rigorous analytic thinking. It also makes an excellent foundation for graduate study in economics, business, law, political science, or public administration.
