<p>What's the difference between the two apart the obvious honors classes...is it significant when graduating and getting a job etc...thanks</p>
<p>This is a great question- I want to know too!</p>
<p>bump…</p>
<p>double bump</p>
<p>Are you talking about taking lower level classes with an honors designation? That is nice, but in the grand scheme of things, I do not think that will have a great impact on your future.</p>
<p>Are you talking about graduating with upper level departmental honors in economics?
[UT</a> College of Liberal Arts - Honors Programs](<a href=“http://www.utexas.edu/cola/student-affairs/Programs/Honors.php#Dept]UT”>http://www.utexas.edu/cola/student-affairs/Programs/Honors.php#Dept)
That is probably helpful for grad school, for example.</p>
<p>You wouldn’t be applying for a job as an economist with a bachelor’s degree in economics, would you? I don’t know what the impact of either of these would be on job hunting…</p>
<p>You might try asking this over in the parents’ forum; it sounds like a general question more than a UT question (maybe?)</p>
