AA/AS in Economics

Economics students learn to interpret data and understand how goods, services and resources are produced and distributed. Employers value the analysis, technical writing and critical thinking skills involved. The Associate of Science emphasis is aimed at Oregon State, and a separate transfer map covers every public university in the state. Advisors help choose courses suited to the destination school. Program maps and catalog entries on the college website lay out the course sequence term by term. Working with an advisor early helps students line up credits with the destination university and avoid repeating classes. Tuition follows the college's standard rate rather than a program-specific price, and prospective students can ask for further details through an online request form.
