Requirements
for the PREMEDICAL CONCENTRATION in Economics
Core Requirements in Economics
Department
The following courses are required
:
- W1105 Principles of Economics
- Either W3211 Intermediate Micro or
W3213 Intermediate Macro
- Two economics courses
Core Requirements in the Math
and Statistics Departments
Statistics : Students must take W1211
Introduction to Statistics B (or a higher level statistics course).
Students must also take the pre-requisite math courses for intermediate
macro (Calculus I) or intermediate micro (Calculus III).
Notes:
• If a student takes an
economics elective without having completed the pre-requisites, then
that course will not count towards the major.
Please read the pre-requisites carefully.
• Continuing Education/Business
Courses: We do not accept any of the courses from Continuing Education
or the Business school as elective courses, but the department does
offer corporate finance (W4280) that may satisfy students' interest in
this area.
• Courses not listed in the
economics department in the bulletin will not be
counted towards the major unless the student gets prior
approval from his or her advisor.
• The department and Barnard offer several of the same courses
(listed below). If a student takes the same course in both schools then
only one of the two will count as an elective.
• W4321 and BC3029 Economic
Development
• W4329 and BC3039 Economics of
the Environment
• W4400 and BC3019 Labor
Economics
• W4500 and BC3047 International
Trade
• W4505 and BC3038 International
Money
• G4235 and BC3041 Historical
Foundations of Modern Economics
This list is not necessarily
exhaustive and the department reserves the right to deny credit for any
other courses where the subject matter overlaps too much.
Grading
Students must receive a grade of at
least C- in order for the course to count towards the major (including
statistics and math). Only W1105 Principles of Economics may be taken
Pass/D/Fail.
