Bachelor of Science - Joint Majors - Economics / Mathematics

Program Description Economics as a discipline is constructed around the need to identify agents in the economy and analyze their interactions. As such it is based upon deriving generalizations by identifying behavioural rules and examining causal relationships between economic variables. The emphasis on examining causal relationships is a distinguishing feature of economics and forms an important part of its claim to be a social science. The Bachelor of Science in Joint Major of Economics/Mathematics is also offered within the program.
