The objective of an Economics minor is to provide an avenue for acquiring a basic understanding of economics that can complement the student's major course of study.
You will have a strong grasp of economic theory upon completion of the minor. This will help you to understand and analyze contemporary economic issues and events such as health care, social security, taxes, welfare, environmental policy, international trade, economic growth, business cycles, and the role of government policies. In addition, the study of economics provides strong rational decision-making skills.
Westminster College offers you small class sizes, an open door policy by professors, a tutoring program that makes someone available to explain difficult concepts, and a supportive environment for all types of students.
“With the guidance and help that I received from the faculty at Westminster, I was able to secure a job one year before graduation, was able to work on multiple research papers, and also present at multiple different conferences both on and off campus.”
