Overview

Program Description This program provides excellent economics training and prepares students to begin working immediately after graduation in a wide variety of jobs. It also serves as a well-respected field of study for those entering law school and other less-mathematically rigorous graduate and professional programs. Our B.A. provides more flexibility with respect to taking elective courses than our B.S. degree. Since this degree is through the WMU College of Arts and Sciences, it pairs quite well with a minor or even second major in another CAS department. Pre-Professional Pathways Pre-professional is a category for College of Arts and Sciences students at Western Michigan University who intend to enter a professional school after graduating with their bachelor's degrees. If you plan to enter a health profession or attend law school, WMU's pre-professional pathways offer the guidance, support, academic preparation and field experience you need to be successful. Please let your recruiter know if you are interested in one or multiple pathways. The options are: Pre-chiropractic Pre-dental Pre-forensic science Pre-law Pre-medicine Pre-naturopathic medicine Pre-optometry Pre-pharmacy Pre-physical therapy Pre-physician assistant Pre-public health Pre-veterinary Pre-secondary education

Optional Practical Training (OPT)

OPT and STEM OPT eligibility depend on maintaining F-1 status and on the program. A program counts as STEM only when its CIP code is on the official STEM list — not because its name sounds technical.
