ECON+BBA

The Department of Economics and The Goizueta Business School are thrilled to announce a collaboration to support and enhance students’ interdisciplinary interests. The Department of Economics will allow Economics majors an additional degree of freedom in course selection. 

Effective January 2024, all students who are pursuing both a BBA degree and an ECON major may either count one approved ECON elective toward the required electives for the BBA degree OR one approved BBA elective toward the required electives for the ECON major. 

We are happy to provide our Econ majors with more options to complete the program. Students’ Degree Tracker pages will be updated to reflect this change in January 2024.  This means the change will take effect with students graduating in May 2024, and courses taken previously will be included retroactively.
