The Department of Economics, Business, and Finance offers majors and minors in Economics, Business, and Finance. Students cannot double major, double minor, or have both a major and a minor within the Department. Each major also allows students to complete an area of concentration, but students are not required to do so.

As of March 2021, international students who major in Economics have the ability to apply for the Optional Practice Training Extension for STEM (OPT-STEM) in order to receive 36 rather than 12 months of OPT; however, due to federal policy, OPT-STEM is not available to students majoring in Business or Finance.

Students are not allowed to count more than 15 credits, exclusive of internship credits, from the department combined across all three prefixes (BUSN, ECON, or FIN) toward graduation. Students may appeal to the Chair of the Department for exceptions to this policy.

Courses taken toward a major in Economics, Business, or Finance cannot be taken Pass-No Pass, with the exception that MATH 108 and 109 or MATH 110 must carry an assigned grade of at least C-, even if it is listed as Pass on the transcript. There are no Pass-No Pass limits for minors.

13.5 credits are required for the completion of this major.
