Bachelor of Science in Economics and International Business

The combined economics and international business degree gives students the opportunity to learn about economic theory and applications and how an economics perspective guides strategy and conduct of international business operations. Economics provides theoretical underpinnings for international business in areas such as export and import activity, foreign investment decisions, choosing overseas locations for manufacturing and conducting R&D, deciding on technology transfer, the setting and movement of foreign exchange rates, the role of trade balances in influencing the macroeconomy, and government regulations affecting global antitrust issues and the freedom of action of multinational corporations. The combined major gives interested students a chance to learn how economic principles can be utilized by managers in directing international business activities.
