Bachelor of Science [B.S] [Applied Economics] From Bryant University

?Thinking like an economist? requires analytical skills and the ability to identify economic issues and problems while framing issues in ways other people do not see. This way of reasoning also means devising policy proposals for addressing problems and analyzing both the intended and unintended effect of these policies.

• Demonstrate critical thinking and problem solving skills in an economic context.

• Analyze the economic role of markets and government.

• Understand and debate social, political and current economic issues.

• Analyze global and international economic issues.

• Conduct quantitative economic data analysis and research (B.S.A.E. only).
