Course info

In the broadest sense, economics is the science of decision-making. You will learn how to identify the costs, benefits, and consequences of a decision. Often identified with the study of market behavior, economists also study issues that affect the market such as criminal behavior, poverty, law, environmental control, population, voting, and political behavior. At WVU you may earn a Bachelor of Arts in Economics or a Bachelor of Science degree in Economics. The BS in Economics requires courses in Economics (Intermediate Microeconomic Theory, Intermediate Macroeconomic Theory, and American Economic History), as well as Economics electives, such as International Economics, Economic Development, Comparative Economic Systems, Econometrics, Mathematical Economics, Labor Economics, Money and Banking, and Public Economics.
