Career Opportunities
A substantial majority of economics majors seek employment after graduation. Placements typically include managerial, sales, and staff/professional positions in many different sectors of the economy, including manufacturing, banking and finance, advertising, insurance, communication, education, wholesaling, retailing, social service, government, and non-profit institutions. A number of graduates go on to graduate work, some immediately after graduation and some after several years of work experience. The largest number enter M.B.A. programs, the second largest number law school, and the third largest go on to graduate work in economics. A few do graduate work in other fields; these are typically students with second majors or minors in another discipline. |
