Economics (LSB): Recommended Three-Year Path

Notes:

  • This is a general guide. Some classes may be moved up or back with no negative impact to progress.
  • Any credits the student brings from the high school experience (AP or IB test credits or dual credits, for example) may be used to lighten the load in a particular semester or reduce the number of summer credits required.
  • MA 106 Calculus may be substituted for MA 125 Business Calculus. For students who plan to attend graduate school, this is recommended.
  • If math placement results require the student to enroll in MA101 Algebra prior to MA 125, MA 101 will be an LAS elective. Changes can be made to keep the student on track overall. MA125 should be completed no later than Spring One.
  • The shorter schedule can make it more difficult to double major in business disciplines or add a minor, but it might be done with careful planning.
  • Study abroad is more difficult to arrange on the compact schedule, but the University Elective in Summer Two might be used for a short-term study abroad program.
