Course Requirements
Students in the Driehaus College of Business who wish to gain a deeper understanding of economic theory and practice to complement their majors can do so with a minor in Economics. Students may choose the economics electives that best fit their individual courses of study.
In addition to ECO 105 and ECO 106, a Driehaus student minoring in Economics is required to complete the following courses of 12.0 hours (totaling at least 20.0 hours):
| Course | Title | Quarter Hours |
|---|---|---|
| Select three, 300-level or higher Economics Electives | 12 | |
ECO 101 is intended for non-Driehaus students and cannot be counted toward a major or minor in economics.
ECO 377, ECO 393, and ECO 395 may not be used as Economics Electives in the Economics major or minor.
Focus Areas for Economics Majors/Minors
The department recommends the following Focus Areas as an advising tool for students to use in their course selection. In addition to the courses listed in the Focus Areas, the department offers Special Topics courses (ECO 398) that may be relevant to one or more of the Focus Areas. Economics Focus Areas can be found in the the Economics Major section of the Academic Catalog.
Graduation Requirements
All Economics (ECO) courses and any other courses used toward the Economics minor must be completed with a minimum grade of C- and with a combined GPA of 2.000 or higher.
