Why Study 经济学 at 云顶集团?


Our 经济学 program is unique among most undergraduate 经济学 programs in that we require 两个 econometrics courses as part of our major, 和 one econometrics course as part of our minor. Many undergraduate 经济学 programs do not require econometrics for either the major or minor. We choose to emphasize econometrics in our program to provide our students with the quantitative 和 critical thinking skills necessary to thrive in a data-driven world. 

We are a STEM certified program 和 our CIP code is 45.0603.   阅读更多
