A major in Economics includes twenty-seven semester hours including the following:
A. Economics 2306*, 2307*, 3306, 3307, and 4347.
B. Twelve semester hours of economics electives.
*Students may waive this requirement by satisfying one of the following: 1)
SAT math score of 650 or higher or its equivalent, 2) a grade of A in Mathematics
1321 at Baylor, or 3) permission of the department chair. If Economics 2306
and/or 2307 are skipped, then additional courses in economics must be taken
in lieu of the bypassed courses. Note: Economics 3305 and 3337 cannot count
on an Economics major. Economics courses cannot be used to meet the basic social
science requirement for the BS degree.
Required courses in other fields:
* A. Mathematics 1321 (Calculus I)
* B. Mathematics 1322 (Calculus II), or
Mathematics 2381 (Statistics for Biomedical Science), or
Mathematics 3381 (Statistical Methods)
* C. Eight hours of laboratory science with appropriate labs
* D. Twenty additional semester hours of science and mathematics, selected from
one or more of the following: biology, chemistry, geology, physics, psychology/neuroscience,
environmental studies, and/or mathematics (excluding the mathematics courses
taken to satisfy the requirement above). All courses must count toward the major
in the respective departments.
