Department of Economics
The Department of Economics offers the opportunity for concentrated study of economic
principles and economic theory as well as specific social issues and fields of economics
including: crime, health care, the environment, labor relations, government regulation, public
finance, economic systems, economic development, and international trade & finance. The
curriculum developed by the Department of Economics is based on the premise that economics
students, regardless of their professional goals, should be well informed about the basic
principles that underlie all areas of economic inquiry.
The study of economics has always required an understanding of mathematics and statistics as
well as the institutional arrangements of society. More recently, as economic analysis has come
to play a central role in public policy debates, interactions between economic theory, law, the
physical sciences and other social sciences have become even more important. For these reasons,
whether students plan to teach, find employment in business or government, or pursue graduate
studies, the same core curriculum is required for all. However, given the range of possible
elective courses, students are able to create customized programs of study that meet their
individual needs.
In support of the mission of liberal arts education in the College of Arts and Sciences, the
Department of Economics actively supports ISU programs in Foundational Studies, Honors,
International Studies, and Women's Studies.
