Bachelor of Commerce - Economics

Program Description

Much of the study of economics consists of examining the operation of market economies to discover regularities of behaviour, ultimately in the expectation that through better understanding society will be able to remedy undesirable results and achieve better ones.

To achieve understanding in economics means moving into the realm of theory, analysis, and technical terms. The economics program at Mount Allison is built around core courses in economic theory, policy analysis, mathematics, and econometrics.

Such study includes:

• economics history
  
• economic thought
• microeconomics
• macroeconomics
• money and banking
• international economics
