Overview

Studying Economics illuminates a deep understanding of how people make decisions and what drives human behavior. At Valparaiso University, you’ll explore how economic concepts apply within topics across disciplines, such as the environment, social justice, healthcare, and the arts.

The students learn to shine a light on the moral and ethical dimensions of economic systems and policies. With close mentorship from faculty, students gain hands-on experience in data analysis, generative AI, econometric modeling, and forecasting.

Paired with the strong foundation of Valpo’s liberal arts education, a major in economics prepares you with highly valued skills to help you pursue a career that makes a difference.
