The Economics Honors Track Advantage “The exposure to econometrics at the undergraduate level has made such an impact on my life post-graduation. The research I was able to conduct in Introduction to Econometrics and Advanced Econometrics is almost always discussed in interviews!” Caleb King, Economics alumnus, Junior Validator in the Model Risk Management Group at PNC Bank in Pittsburgh, Pa.

The Bachelor of Arts in Economics/Honors Track provides a thorough preparation for a long list of careers, as well as graduate programs.
The program is open by departmental permission to economics and economics/pre-law majors with a minimum 3.25 cumulative GPA and a 3.25 GPA in Economics courses.
Students complete ECON 355, 356, and ECON 456, which fulfills the Liberal Studies Synthesis requirement. Students must earn at least a C in each course completed for the track.
Students should consult their advisors to determine how honors track courses will be integrated into existing requirements for economics and economics/pre-law majors. Students with multiple majors must have their “home” department in the College of Humanities and Social Sciences to be eligible for the honors track.
You can also study economics as a student in the Cook Honors College at IUP.
