Your major requires a Calculus class and a Statistics class

The Economics Department recommends taking Calculus first.  You have three options:

  • Single semester Business Calculus
    • MATH 110 - Business Calculus (taught by math instructors, typically more options available)*
    • DS 110 - Calculus with Business Applications (taught by business instructors, typically less options available)*
  • Two semester supported Business Calculus
    • MATH 107/108 (Same as MATH 110 but split over two semesters instead of one semester)*
  • MATH 226 - Calculus (recommended for students interested in pursuing a graduate degree in economics or related fields)
    • If you completed a high school pre-calculus class with a B or better or a high school Calculus class with a C or better, you are eligible to register in Calculus (MATH 226).  Click this link for help with completing the First-Year Math Advising module.
    • If you have not met the above criteria, you will register for Pre-Calculus (MATH 199). Click this link for help with completing the First-Year Math Advising module.
