The mission of the Department of Economics is to provide diverse students with an understanding of economic framework applications as well as prepare students with necessary skills in applied theories to solve local and global economic problems and policy issues. The vision of the Department of Economics is to prepare students to carry out economic analysis to solve issues and problems of community, national and global importance, and will become a repository of economic data and a center of applied research on minority related economic issues.

The undergraduate economics curriculum prepares students for graduate studies as well as employment in government or private industry. Economics majors pursue studies designed to acquaint them with the theoretical foundations of modern economic analysis, analytical tools, and applications to contemporary issues.
