<p>just wondering...</p>
<p>no, it's considered social science</p>
<p>really????</p>
<p>i think hes being sarcastic</p>
<p>i dont think so</p>
<p>i think so because I highly doubt economics is a social science........or so dey say</p>
<p>In my high school econmics is under the social science category...</p>
<p>well it porbably depends. financial economics is very numbers based so that's probably business, but behavioral economics....could be considered a social science. I could be wrong, but economics is always separate from specific "business" programs. I always thought business was like finance, management, etc.</p>
<p>There may be a business economics specialty under a business degree (like marketing, accounting, finance), but at the university I went to Economics was not in the School of Business. You could get a BA in Business Administration or a BA in Economics - two different degrees.</p>
<p>at my college, economics is a social science.</p>
<p>take princeton for example: no undergrad business. So you take econ.</p>
<p>i mean heres my deal--i want to be a lawyer but i also want to have some business type degree that would prove to my future employes at interviews and applications and stuff that i know more than just law and liberal arts..so i don't know if i'm so gungho to go to a biz school for undergrad like a Stern but i would definitely major in econ at the general colleg..would the econ degree from a college of arts and science achieve what i mention above?</p>
<p>oh, well then. i'm doing the same thing. i'm an econ major/math minor, but i'm seriously considering law school.</p>
<p>i think econ would be just fine for what you are planning.</p>
<p>Econ is absolutely a social science.</p>
<p>A lot of schools differentiate business and economics. Even at UPenn, where Economics is a part of the college of arts & sciences, not Wharton.</p>
<p>Economics is a social science. It's the most quantitative of the social sciences and it has countless applications for business, but it is still a social science. And taking econ as a substitute for business would be a huge mistake. I know many people who have done it because they thought it was pretty much just business -- they hated it and did poorly as a result.</p>
<p>it is a social science. It is not a math major, nor a science.</p>
<p>It is about economy and interaction within groups that power the economy.</p>
<p>It is a social science, but usually business majors have to take econimcs classes at one point.</p>
