Research
From ethnographies to self studies to data analysis, research–both informal and through formal programs like SOAR—is deeply embedded in the economics and business curriculum. We don't just ask you to gather data, we immerse you in the experience and encourage critical thinking alongside that data. From preparing a promotional calendar for the Iron Pigs (our local minor league baseball team) to examining the diversity climate on campus, your opportunities for exploration are endless.
