Bachelor of Arts - Economics - International Economics

Hood College strives to teach students to think like economists, empowering students with a self-sustaining capacity to think and learn.

Economic reasoning isn’t just logic and facts. It contains analogies, stories and value premises. As an economics major, students will be expected to acquire competencies in theory and empirical analyses, to adopt either an international or political concentration in their course work or to design their own major in consultation with two faculty members in economics.

Context — political, historical, and cultural — is important. At Hood College, students studying economics learn to make important connections between their field and other realms of human understanding.
