Economic Policy Minor

The online economic policy minor is an excellent way to increase employability and to supplement skills and abilities.

Coursework includes 18 credit hours of study that focuses on analyzing economic problems and economic analysis of public policy, in addition to developing critical reasoning skills. Students from many different majors will benefit from further study of economics as applied to relevant public policy issues—and will gain perspective on both domestic and international aspects of economic analysis of public policy.

The online economic policy minor is open to all eligible ISU students (except economics majors) who wish to add a minor to their current program of study. Courses in the minor may satisfy some requirements in business majors offered by the Scott College of Business. Students should consult with their advisors before enrolling in courses to ensure suitability and plan their program of study.

The entire minor may be completed online. On-campus visits are not required.

Note: The University also offers an online Economics Minor, an online Economic Policy Certificate, and an online Economics B.S. Program.
