Overview

The Economics programme from Lycoming College provides students with the theoretical foundations necessary to understand real-world problems.

Strong quantitative reasoning skills help students to carefully analyze complex problems, skills needed for success in life and future careers. Economics is a useful background for a wide variety of occupations, including business, finance, marketing, policy, law, non-profits, teaching, and public service.

Why Lycoming?

Small class sizes allow for individual attention from professors and a personalized education experience.

Classes are taught by professors with the highest degree in their fields.

Quantitative skills are central to the curriculum leading to highly competitive placement after graduation.

Career exploration and professional development skills are embedded into the economics curriculum, and students work with advisors to establish goals and develop a plan to achieve them.

Students have access to a valuable network of successful alumni who guest lecture in upper-level classes and are willing to assist economics majors in finding a job or choosing a graduate program.

Students have the option of pursuing one of three tracks: Economics, Managerial Economics, or Quantitative Economics.

The managerial track in the economics program is tightly interwoven with the Institute for Management Studies, and students receive a well-rounded business curriculum, unlike other similar institutions.
