Economics is a social science that studies people's decisions under constraints. It offers expertise in topics such as behavior of consumers and firms, efficiency and equity of markets, economic growth, business cycles, international trade and finance, taxation and public policies, etc. The BBA program in Economics focuses on problems closely related to a company's external economic environment and internal operation, and on economic reasoning, which can contribute to sound business decision making.
