Key Facts

Maybe you’ve heard a behavioral economics podcast, or you’ve considered how green industries will change human behavior. Maybe you’re always thinking of how one factor can influence another. If so, you’re already an economist. For example, will Gen Z college grads take jobs in larger cities and move away. How will that impact the tax base in their state or the health of their home state. And will it put pressure on needing more housing in new markets. Or how will automation, robotics, and AI change people’s jobs in 10 or 20 years? An economics education helps you analyzing historical data, current trends, and today’s headlines so you guide businesses, governments, and nonprofits in doing what’s best for what’s next.
