WHAT CAN YOU DO WITH AN ECONOMICS MAJOR?

A simple answer is "anything you want to do" or perhaps better: "anything which requires analytical and problem solving skills". With a degree in economics you have an important skill that differentiates you from others. It is needed in both the private and public sectors, which gives you flexibility.

Increasingly, members of industry, business, non-profit institutions, and government are recognizing the problem-solving abilities of economic analysis. Thus, a variety of career opportunities are available to well-trained economists.
