Bachelors in Business Economics

A business economics major focuses on business applications with an eye toward working for corporations, the government or in the financial sector---gathering or analyzing information and data on markets and business cycles. You'll be grounded in the business core of accounting, statistics, management, marketing, finance and strategy but also given the opportunity to augment that with applications of economic concepts to other industries such as international markets, the public sector or health care, for example. At North Central College, we believe it's important to prepare our students with as many resources as possible when receiving an education. To help do that, we provide our students with hands-on experience through real-world applications so they can feel confident and prepared when entering the workforce. We're one of the few business economics colleges where a business student is able to work closely with a well-respected faculty member. This connection allows students to develop not only their analytical skills but also their critical thinking, reasoning and decision-making skills while enrolled in our BA business economics program.
