The Division also serves the broader CSM community through its offering of Principles of Economics for non-majors, part of the CSM coursework core. 

ASI Requirements:

Complete Principles of Microeconomics (EBGN311) and Principles of Macroeconomics (EBGN312) and two other EBGN courses. (Note: students may not count EBGN201 in conjunction with EBGN311 and EBGN312).

Economics courses taken as part of the Humanities and Social Sciences electives (formerly known as Clusters) count towards the area of special interest. No more than 3 hours may be specifically required for the degree program in which the student is graduating.

Note: Math/Comp Science and Chemistry majors are not allowed to count EBGN201 towards an ASI because it is required for your major.

Note: Chemical Engineering majors may not count both EBGN201 and EBGN321/CHGN421. Instead only one applies towards the ASI.
