Minor in Economics

A minor in economics offers students enrolled in any of Shawnee State University's baccalaureate programs an opportunity to broaden their course of study with an auxiliary focus in economics. This is especially appealing to students interested in careers in banking, law, finance, or government service.

The minor requires you to complete 15 semester hours of economics, with a minimum grade of C. No more than 9 of these hours may count toward your major(s), and since ECON 2201 and 2202 are prerequisites for all upper-level economics courses, these are required for the minor. Any three additional upper-level economics courses will satisfy the hours requirement.
