Welcome to the UNH Department of Economics

The Department of Economics has a worldwide reputation for outstanding teaching and research. It is housed inside the Whittemore School of Business and Economics, which has 60+ full-time faculty, including 14 full-time economics faculty members. The department offers a number of undergraduate and graduate degrees.

Economics majors with outstanding academic records will be invited to join Omicron Delta Epsilon (ODE), the international honor society in economics.

The B.S. degree differs from the B.A. degree in that it requires more quantitative and data analysis courses but does not require a foreign language. It provides more structure and direction than the B.A. degree and is more professionally focused.

B.S. economics majors must complete nine courses in economics with a grade of at least C- (1.67) in each course and an average grade of 2.3 or better in the major courses. These courses must include ECON 605, 611, 726, and 775. In addition, majors must complete MATH 424A, ADMN 403, 410, 420, 502, and 503.
