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.
