Economics Major Requirements

FOR STUDENTS ENTERING FALL 2022 & LATER...
To meet the major requirements, students must successfully complete a minimum of eleven economics courses, which consist of the following seven core courses, ECON 0150, ECON 0155, ECON 0111 (formerly ECON 0210*), ECON 0211, ECON 0250, ECON 0255, one of ECON 0212, ECON 0229, or ECON 0280, and four electives, one of which must be at the 0400-level and one of which must be any of the following: a 0300-level course, another 0400-level course, or the ECON 0701/0702 senior workshop sequence. The other two electives may be 0200-, 0300-, or 0400-level courses. *Note: Beginning Fall 2022 ECON 0210 was renumbered to ECON 0111. Also, the following courses are approved to substitute for ECON 0111: MATH 0116, MATH 0310, PSYC 0201, STAT 0116 (new F23, formerly MATH 0116), STAT 0201.

MODIFICATION TO MAJOR REQUIREMENTS BEGINNING SPRING 2020
Beginning with the spring 2020 semester, economics majors have the additional option of taking one 400 level and one 300 level econ courses to fulfill the upper level elective requirements. This change affects only the composition of the upper level electives component of the major and does not affect the total number of econ courses required for the major.

IMPORTANT NOTES...

Double counting courses towards the major requirements in economics is not allowed (e.g. students may not count MATH 0310 towards their economics major and also towards a math major or minor; students may not count ECON 0280 towards their ECON major requirements and also towards a math major or minor);
Majors doubling in ECON and PSYC or ECON and MATH may count ECON 0111 (formerly ECON 0210), or MATH 0116, or MATH 0310, or PSYC 0201 or STAT 0201 towards the stats requirement for both majors when stats is listed as a required course in both majors.
Students may not receive credit for both AP and the course it can replace. For example if you have AP Macro with a score of 4 or 5 and decide to take ECON 0150 at Middlebury, you forfeit your AP Macro credit. There is not double counting of credits allowed.
A minimum of 6 economics courses must be taken at Middlebury;
ECON 0240/IPEC 0240 does not count towards the ECON major requirements;
ECON 0500 does not count towards the ECON major requirements;
Economics electives taken during the winter term will count towards the major only if so designated in the winter term catalog.
Electives can be 200, 300, or 400 level courses.
Seminars are 400 level courses and the ECON Thesis workshop sequence (0701/0702).
While students get two credits over two terms for the ECON Thesis workshop sequence (ECON 0701/702) only 1 credit is applied to the ECON major requirements.
Calculating your economics GPA: Eleven courses is the minimum course requirement to major in economics; however, all ECON courses taken at the Vermont campus (including winter term) approved to count towards the major requirements are included in the economics gpa calculation. (e.g. If you take over the 11 minimum course requirement, you may not pick and choose which electives count towards the major.) ECON 0701/0702 sequence grade counts once only in the gpa calculation. Study abroad and other transfer credits are not included in the gpa calculation.

Feedback on using this form (Optional)

I am looking for feedback on use of this form. If you have comments or suggestions for improvement, I would appreciate it if you could note them here. (e.g. Was the form clear and easy to use? Did you find the information on the major requirements helpful? Do you feel this would have been a useful tool for you to use with your advisor after you declared your major? Was information missing that you felt should be included?) Thanks!!
