Program

Note:

• Economics 1010H and 1020H are prerequisites for all other courses in Economics. A standing of C- (60%) or higher is required in Economics 1010H and 1020H for registration in upper year Economics courses. With the exception of Economics-Administration 2250H and Economics-Administration 2200H, two-thousand series courses in Economics are accepted as three-thousand level courses to meet the University requirements of a minimum number of three-thousand series courses.

It is strongly recommended for single-majors that Economics 3200H and Economics 3250H, and for joint-majors that Economics-Administration 2250H and Economics 3200H be completed before students enter their fourth quarter.
