Department
of Economics
Departmental Honors Program
Students
with a 3.5 GPA in economics and an overall 2.8 GPA at the beginning
of the upper-senior semester may apply for departmental honors
at that time. Registration in ECO 499 and submission of an honors
paper are required. Honors papers are written under the supervision
of a senior faculty member and defended before a faculty committee.
The
Department of Economics also offers promising students the opportunity
to complete both the BA and MA degrees within 120 credits, 30
of which must be at the graduate level. All students in the BA/MA
Program must complete ECO 221, 300, 301, 321, Math 150, 155, and
160 or their equivalents. An undergraduate major in economics
is normally required, but Thomas Hunter Honors Program students
may be admitted without declaring an undergraduate economics major,
provided that the above courses are completed with at least a
3.0 GPA both in economics and in the general cumulative index.
