Bachelor of Arts in Economics

MacEwan University

Economics is about much more than money and wealth. It’s about making the best use of resources and learning strategies for making effective decisions. In a way, everyone is an economist-from a child deciding which candy to buy to a country’s leader deciding how to support the nation during a pandemic. As an economics major, you examine contemporary issues and topics from an economic perspective. You learn that economic principles and foundations are relevant at personal, community, national and global levels.

In this rigorous program, you sharpen your critical thinking skills and expand your mind. You also gain a strong grounding in the economic principles and theories needed in graduate studies or in a career in public, private and non-profit sectors.
