Economists help oil the wheels of society by monitoring trends, evaluating the distribution of goods and services and developing forecasts on such vital issues as interest and exchange rates, inflation, consumer demand, energy costs, employment levels and taxes. In addition, given the unprecedented importance of economic decisions, the need for secondary school economics is also intensifying.

You can prepare for these career paths through the 126-credit Bachelor of Arts degree program in Economics at St. John's University, offered by St. John?s College of Liberal Arts and Sciences. Major courses are provided in partnership with The Peter J. Tobin College of Business ? taking advantage of the acclaimed resources and faculty of two outstanding University divisions.

Reflecting the University's Vincentian and Catholic values, emphasis is put on the ethical dimensions of business decisions.
