Economics Minor - 2009
Major/Minor at Hawthorn
Description
The study of economics aims to ‘lift the veil’ on inflation, commodity pricing, exchange rates, unemployment, foreign liabilities, international competitiveness and other serious domestic and global economic issues. Students who combine economics with their major studies may more deeply understand a range of topical economic issues such as how the supply and demand of the world’s limited resources can impact on individuals, businesses and governments, as well as the rationale and workings of macroeconomic policies. The finance subjects offer students more specialised skills that are particularly relevant to financial sector employment.
This Minor is available to students commencing in 2009 only.
Structure
A minor is set of four (4) units that aim to enhance a student's knowledge and skill set by either introducing them to new subject matter or expanding upon topics they’re already familiar with in their major.
A unit can only be counted once as part of a major, co-major or minor. Where there is an overlap of units a substitute unit has been identified in the relevant cognate area.
