<p>I was strongly encouraged to change my major because of last semester's grades so I chose Economics. I initally wanted Aerospace Engineering and that is known to be the hardest major in my school with several people dropping out of it before the semester ends. Even though I am interested in the sciences, I am struggling in those classes. So I figured to give this a try because my uncle is in accounting and I have a little knowledge of what the major will consist of.</p>
<p>Economics is the study of scarce resource. It is a social science/business discipline. You can do just about anything with it. (Business,Grad, Law etc.) Typically all undegraduate schools will require a econ major to take the following </p>
<p>Microeconomics
Macroeconomics
Intermediate Microeconomcs
Intermediate Microeconomics
Statistics
Calculus
Intermediate Statistics
Econometrics</p>
<p>So what would be some projects that I might have to do?</p>
<p>I'm not an Econ major. for my Micro class we had to write a paper, but it's just microeconomics(which all business students have to take along with macro). I wrote mines on whether organs should be put on the open market got a 24/25.</p>
<p>I think for my intro to micro class we wrote a paper on how microeconomics applied to an article in the WSJ, it was pretty basic.</p>
<p>have you taken Macro?</p>
<p>Yeah I liked it a lot. taking an upper division econ class next semester for the heck of it, needed to fill up a sport.</p>
<p>I'm taking Macro next semester. Harder than Micro?</p>
<p>easier. a lot easier.</p>
<p>i ono, personally i understand micro better. we just finished up macro and man soo much information to process.....</p>
<p>^I agree, I seem to understand micro a lot better. But I dop think macro is a lot cooler. In our macro class we started seeing some monetary policy stuff, that shi.. is the bomb!!!</p>
