Economics is a unique field of study. Although it is the foundation of many
social sciences, its close links to business give Economics majors the
analytical skills needed to excel in today's competitive job market. Employment
prospects are excellent and the field of study is wide open. Is Economics for

analysis?
Are you interested in moving beyond the nuts and bolts of accounting into a
more broad-based strategic application of accounting?
