Economics Minor
Also available at OSU-Cascades and via Ecampus.
Businesses, public agencies, and other employers want employees who can think, communicate orally, write, and solve problems and who are comfortable with quantitative analysis. The Economics minor perfectly prepares students to meet these demands. Students completing the minor will demonstrate an understanding of microeconomic theory and apply economic theory to issues in fields of economics.
