Minor in Economics
Given the broad applicability of the concepts and analytical skills developed in the study of Economics, the minor in Economics is a valuable addition to nearly any field of study. The minor design is intended to allow students majoring in a wide variety of disciplines to tailor their Economics course selection to best align with their academic and career plans. Students must complete a minimum of 6 Economics courses (as described below) with a Pacific minor grade point average of 2.0 or higher in order to earn the minor in economics.
Minor Requirements:
| ECON 053 | Introductory Microeconomics | 4 |
| ECON 055 | Introductory Macroeconomics: Theory and Policy | 4 |
| ECON electives – 4 additional Economics courses (must be numbered ECON 71 or higher, excluding ECON 101L and including ECON 191 only with departmental approval) | 16 | |
Note: 1) 10 units must be completed at Pacific. 2) ECON 101 is strongly recommended. It is a prerequisite to several upper division courses. 3) BUSI 031 and BUSI 033 together can substitute for one of the economics electives.
