Economics, History, Law, and Political Science
Overview
Economics is about understanding the world we live in and having the right tools to shape and change it. You will learn to think outside of the box of traditional economics education and develop a critical set of skills to understand the world of production, distribution, consumption, and how it affects corporations, government policies, and your day-to-day life.
History is more than memorizing facts—it’s about understanding the forces that shape our world. You’ll build strong writing, research, and critical thinking skills while studying politics and theory, completing a capstone, joining student clubs, and working with archival materials. Gain the tools to develop ideas, analyze evidence, and craft persuasive arguments.
Political science studies power, governance, and public decision-making in societies. It examines political institutions, political behavior, public policy, and global relations to understand how political systems function and change. By combining theoretical inquiry with empirical analysis, the discipline equips students to critically analyze political issues and engage thoughtfully in public life.
