Economics, B.B.A.

Economists study how society distributes scarce resources such as land, labor raw material, and machinery to produce goods and services. They conduct research, collect and analyze data, monitor economic trends, and develop forecasts. They research issues such as energy costs, inflation, interest rates, imports, or employment levels.
