Economics
The Economics/Management major focuses on important aspects of economic theory, philosophy, and application, including courses in intermediate theory, development of economic thought, economic forecasting and research, and monetary theory.
The Economic Forecast
In addition to the dual major in Economics and Management, Northwood University offers a unique four-year, triple major that combines the most useful aspects of Economics, Banking and Finance, and Management. The Economics component focuses on the study of human action, choice behavior, and optimization, and its influence on resource allocation by individuals, business enterprises, nations, and the world. The curriculum introduces students to the contributions of leading economists, various techniques of economic theory and research, and forecasting. The Management component encourages the application of economic analysis to organizational problems at both the operational and strategic levels.
Graduates routinely move into positions in the banking, finance, and analytical services industries. Past graduates of the program have started their careers at the Chicago Board of Trade, the Federal Reserve System, and the U.S. Department of Defense. The dual or triple major prepares students for graduate studies in Economics, Management, Finance, and Law.
