Business Economics (B.B.A.)

Combine ground-level business savvy with an understanding of the economy from 30,000 feet.

Grads of UND's Business Economics program are adept at both the day-to-day tasks of operating a business and knowing how real-world economic conditions are likely to affect it. By blending economics with entrepreneurship, you'll have the skills to gather and analyze data as you solve real-world problems affecting companies, governments and non-profit organizations.

Why Study Business Economics at UND?

Data, and knowing how to analyze it, is a critical part of economics. In the world of business, though, analysis goes only so far — you need to be as adept at finding solutions as identifying issues. The Business Economics program integrates economics with courses in marketing, management, accounting, finance and quantitative analysis. And you'll have the chance to gain hands-on experience through internships, our student-run investment fund and the chance to participate in research at our Bureau of Business & Economic Research. By the time you graduate, you'll have built a foundation that will help you make sensible policy recommendations whether you work in business or government.
