The Bert W. Wasserman Department of Economics and Finance offers a liberal arts minor in economics. The liberal arts minor consists of 9 credits and requires that students take
ECO 3100 Intermediate Micro-Economics or ECO 3200 Intermediate Macro-Economics
3 additional credits in 3000-level or 4000-level courses in economics
A 3 credit communication-intensive 4000-level capstone course in economics.
It is the responsibility of the student to ensure that all prerequisites are met. If in doubt, students should check with an economics advisor to ensure their choices conform to the requirements of this concentration.
With the exception of ECO 4000, ECO 4091, ECO 4092, ECO 4093,ECO 4094, and ECO 4150, all other 4000-level courses are communication-intensive courses. Sometimes ECO 4093 (a 3-credit special topics course) may be communication-intensive, depending on the course material. Students are required to check the course description in CUNYfirst. Courses used for the liberal arts minor in Economics cannot be counted towards the 24 credits for the BBA in Finance.
