A perspective rooted in the liberal arts is used to examine the causes and patterns of societal change within the framework of economics.  The approach helps students prepare fro graduate study in the fields of economics, business, law, and related disciplines, as well as professional careers.

 

Job increase will be driven by very rapid growth in computer system design and related services, which is projected to be one of the fastest-growing industries in the U.S. economy.
