What it is	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 mathematics and economics together as equally important subjects, learning how to use mathematical methods to analyze economic problems and data. This combined degree differs from studying either subject alone because you build expertise in both fields rather than majoring in one and minoring in the other. It suits students who enjoy both abstract mathematics and real-world applications, and want to prepare for careers in finance, data analysis, or economic research.	This program trains you to teach junior and intermediate students (roughly grades 4 to 10) by combining a university degree in arts subjects with teacher education coursework. You study one or two arts subjects like English, history, or psychology while also taking education courses that teach you how to plan lessons, manage a classroom, and assess student learning. It suits people who want to teach a specific subject and earn a teaching credential in four years rather than doing a separate degree first.
