Study the science of decision making in Economics
Studying economics equips students with a powerful blend of analytical and communication skills that form the foundation of economic reasoning. You’ll develop abilities in problem solving, critical thinking, and strategic decision-making—skills that help explain human behavior and guide choices in business, government, law, and beyond. This way of thinking is essential for evaluating business operations, public policy, and development projects at both local and global levels.
An economics degree does not limit your path—it broadens it. The versatility of the discipline is reflected in its many notable graduates, from leaders like Ronald Reagan and Sandra Day O’Connor to innovators in sports and the arts such as John Elway, Bill Belichick, Mick Jagger, and Paul Newman.
At USI, economics provides a strong foundation for graduate and professional studies, with many students pursuing law school, an MBA, or a Master of Public Administration. Those with a passion for data analytics can take their expertise further with advanced study in applied econometrics. No matter the direction, economics offers the intellectual tools and practical perspective to thrive in a wide range of careers.
