Welcome to the Department of Economics in the Richards College of Business. The field of economics considers such topics as scarcity, inflation, unemployment, supply and demand, profits, and international trade. Economics graduates of West Georgia are working as market analysts, stockbrokers, bankers, educators and managers just to name a few fields.

Majoring in Economics provides good preparation for future study in business, law, and other disciplines. The economics faculty take pride in working closely with students in courses and on research projects. Each year the department awards a number of scholarships to deserving economics students.
