Finance & Economics: A Strategic Merger for a Smarter Future

The Monte Ahuja College of Business has combined our Finance and Economics departments into one integrated academic unit—reflecting the way the business world works today.

Finance and economics are deeply connected: understanding markets, managing risk, analyzing data, and making informed decisions are essential skills across both fields. By merging our departments, we are aligning curriculum, faculty expertise, and student opportunities to better prepare you for a dynamic and data-driven global economy.

This new structure enhances:

• Collaboration between disciplines
• Access to faculty expertise across both areas
• Curriculum flexibility for double majors or interdisciplinary interests
• Stronger pathways to careers in finance, business analytics, government, and policy

Whether you're drawn to the practical world of finance or the analytical lens of economics, you’ll find a program that empowers you to lead with confidence and clarity.
