To earn an undergraduate degree in Economics, students need to meet certain requirements. Additionally, students must also choose elective courses outside of the required classes to accumulate enough total credits. When choosing electives, students should consider the following.

• Elective classes can help students narrow their focus and plan for future careers related to Economics. Students can customize their major by choosing classes that help them hone in on a career or area of interest. Learn more about these classes below.
• Interested in another area of study too? An additional degree or minor may be closer than you think! The degree requirements for many other majors and minors overlap with Econ's. This means, with a carefully crafted class selection, students can sometimes earn more than one degree at once helping them make the most out of their time at UConn. For more guidance on how this can be achieved, contact your advisors.
• Certain classes can double-count towards earning a graduate degree. The Department of Economics offers an accelerated-undergraduate-to-graduate degree program that enables undergrads to save time and money while pursuing a Masters of Science in Quantitative Economics.
