经济分析的基础

How do people make decisions under the restraints of limited resources? How can mathematical models and statistical analysis help us understand the implications of those decisions? And how can incentives alter our decision making processes? 如果这些问题引起了你的兴趣, UNE’s 副修经济学 just may be the perfect complement to your major field of study. You’ll discover that 经济学 intersects many disciplines and has applications in a diverse range of fields, 从金融, 政府, 从医疗保健到教育, 环境, 以及社会服务. 此外, the critical and analytic thinking skills that you acquire in the Economics minor can be broadly applied to virtually any field, making this an ideal program for enhancing your professional prospects.

为什么一个

Contrary to popular belief, not all economists work in the finance industry. Many different fields require professionals who are familiar with economic theories and who can implement economic tools of analysis. UNE’s Economics minor is not just a pared down version of an 经济学 major. It is a unique program that supports and complements study in multiple fields. 

  • Offers diverse courses and small class sizes 
  • 促进跨学科研究 
  • Supports internships with many local partner companies 
  • Enhances career prospects no matter what your major is
     

作为可持续发展和商业专业的学生, I found that an Economics minor helped me tie together the two elements of 环境 and business within my major. I feel as though this minor has greatly complemented my major and has made me a more versatile and well-rounded student.” — 艾比·安德森,23岁
