Economists seek to understand the complex interplay between resources and human behavior. Their work guides far-reaching decisions on public policy and the everyday choices of consumers. Dominican University offers two undergraduate programs in economics: a Bachelor of Business Administration (BBA) degree through the Brennan School of Business and a Bachelor of Arts (BA) degree for students interested in interdisciplinary study or a double major.
