Welcome to the Economics major page at the Langdale College of Business Administration at 皇家华人 State University. We are really excited that you are interested in our major. Since there is a growing need for economic analyses in every industry, we believe that it is a great time to major in economics.

What is economics? Economics is the study of how resources are used to meet society’s needs. It is an essential aspect of virtually every decision individuals, businesses, and governments make. Students who pursue a B.B.A degree in Economics develop the analytical and problem solving skills needed to make these decisions.

What do economists do? Economics is FUN, and economists study a wide range of topics, from the usual suspects of GDP, inflation, national debt, and unemployment to the environment, health care, crime and punishment, marriage, addiction, sports, voting behavior, government programs, education, religion, discrimination, and basically any type of human behavior.

The economics major is an excellent complement to many other majors, including other business majors. A second major in economics will tremendously improve your potential for success no matter what career path you follow, as the skills developed in the economics major have value in any setting. Therefore, we encourage you to consider economics to supplement your skill set. Please feel free to contact any of the VSU economics faculty if you have any questions about the major.
