Economics – Minor
For information, contact Mr. Chris Duelfer, M.S. Economics.
Studying markets, cultures, and governments from the perspective of economics
grounded in liberal arts and social science is a powerful complement to a
student’s degree in all disciplines. Educational background in theory and application of
economic principles provides entry to positions in business, non-government
organizations, public policy, and social advocacy. Students with economics
backgrounds, for example, are found on Wall Street, in Washington D.C., and
throughout all the state capitals. The Cedar Crest College minor provides an
introduction to consumer and producer theory plus closer examination of
advanced topics such as labor, financial markets, and economic geography.
