It also is an important component for business management, law, operations, and financial analysis.

In addition to completing the B.B.A. core requirements, you must complete at least 20 additional hours of economics, including ECON 303 or 305 and ECON 304 and 485. ECON 300 and 381 cannot be counted toward this requirement. No economics course can be counted toward both nonbusiness and major requirements.
