Overview

Economics is the study of human behavior. A lot of human behavior takes place in a business context, which makes it a great business discipline. However, most behavior takes place outside of a business context. This is what makes economics such a versatile major...you aren't just learning about business...you're learning how the world around you works.

As an Economics student at the University of Central Missouri, you will be learning how to evaluate alternatives and make better choices. We will help you improve your critical thinking and problem solving skills. You will learn quantitative research methods that will help you analyze data to make better decisions. These skills are very valuable in the job market. A recent study by Georgetown University found that economics majors have higher median earning than any other business major.

Career

Because studying economics improves your critical thinking and problem solving skills, economics majors go on to work in a wide array of careers. This includes finance, management, accounting, policy analysis, health administration, entrepreneurship, law, politics, banking and consulting.

Some economics majors go on to graduate school in fields like economics, finance, foreign affairs, journalism, public administration and law.
