Overview

Program Description International direct admission to Utah Global is for international students with advanced English-language skills.

International direct students at Utah Global receive: Exclusive and rigorous academic coursework Priority access to in-demand courses that fit their interests Guidance from academic advisors and mentors Career development and networking opportunities Intensive classes with domestic students An economy is a social system where people produce and distribute goods and services. Economists study these systems, focusing on issues related to decision-making in governments, social and economic institutions, firms and industries. The world is shaped in a fundamental way by economic forces. High unemployment, financial uncertainty, and growing public debt present great challenges. Concerns about energy sources, and about the environmental impact of economic activity will also be with society for decades to come. Studying economics will allow students to understand these challenges more deeply and will give them tools to help solve these problems. The Economics major is an excellent preparation for a wide range of jobs and graduate and professional studies. Students in the program gain critical thinking and quantitative analysis skills, and these abilities can be used to solve economic and other real-world problems. Beyond the core sequence in micro- and macroeconomics and quantitative and statistical methods, students can choose elective courses focused on money and banking, environmental economics, economic development in poor countries, labor economics, health economics, econometrics, and many other topics. The Economics curriculum offers students an exposure to an unusual breadth of economic thought, as is reflected in elective offerings that examine feminist, historical, and institutional approaches. The flexible course schedule also allows students to complete minors or second majors in fields like business, political science, math, and many others. Consider an emphasis in Business Economics & Analytics or Statistics Analysis. Because economic analysis is clear and precise, the major is highly valued by job recruiters and graduate schools.
