| What it is | You study how money, markets, and resources work in society, learning to analyze economic data and understand policy decisions that affect people's lives. You can focus on general economics, combine it with political science, or specialize in resource and environmental economics if you have stronger math and science preparation. This suits people curious about why economies function as they do and who want practical skills in financial analysis or policy work. | Economics is the study of how people and societies make choices about money, resources, and trade. At Carleton, you can focus your learning on areas like environmental issues, global development, finance, or politics alongside core economic theory and mathematics. The program includes a co-op option, letting you work in relevant jobs between study terms to build practical experience. | You study the causes, effects, and solutions to conflict at local, national, and global scales, drawing on geography, politics, development, and social policy. This program emphasizes understanding conflict through multiple disciplines rather than focusing narrowly on one field. It suits students interested in humanitarian work, policy analysis, diplomacy, or activism who want a broad foundation in how societies experience and resolve disputes. | You study how economies work, how people make financial decisions, and how businesses operate, with courses in accounting, statistics, and related math. The iBA version requires you to complete your degree with significant study in both English and French, while the regular BA has a minimal language requirement. This program suits students interested in understanding markets, policy, and numbers rather than just doing accounting or business management alone. |
