Economic Courses

B.A./M.B.A. PROGRAM

The B.A./M.B.A. program allows students who major in economics in the College of Arts and Sciences to earn a bachelor’s degree and a Master of Business Administration in five years. By carefully selecting courses, students can complete the requirements for both degrees in as few as 150 credit hours.

Students spend the first three years taking arts and sciences courses. At the end of the third year, they apply to the M.B.A. program. If accepted, students take a mixture of arts and sciences and business courses during the fourth year. The fifth year is reserved exclusively for graduate business courses.

When students have completed all arts and sciences requirements and 130 credit hours, they receive a bachelor’s degree. After completing the M.B.A. requirements and 150 total credit hours, students also receive an M.B.A. Students must be accepted into the M.B.A. program before they may take graduate courses. Students who are rejected may complete the requirements for the bachelor’s degree.
