AB Economics Program - Bulletin of Information Pangasinan State University Jameson Estrada

1. Bachelor of Arts in Economics (AB Econ) is a four-year degree program that is designed to provide students with working knowledge in economic concepts
and skills in performing economic analysis and modelling and economic policies necessary to understand the functioning of both national and international
economy. The program aims to give students an in-depth understanding of how various economic agents and institutions (consumers, firms, government
and foreign sector) work in determining the economic issues and problems the society faces so as to create sound economic decisions and possible
solutions with the application of both microeconomic and macroeconomic principles, theories, and models.
The study of economics is central to the comprehensive understanding of markets, demand and supply of goods and services, businesses, government
policies, international trade issues, health, labor, banking and finance, economic growth and development, environment among others. This is a program
that is indented for students who would wish to become analysts, researchers, advisors and economists in the public and private sectors. Graduates of
the program may work in a range of varied fields including public sector, business, finance, research and development, healthcare, real estate, human
resource management, sales and marketing.
WHAT IS AB ECONOMICS PROGRAM?
SKILLS NEEDED IN THE AB ECONOMICS
There are subjects in the program that require the use of certain mathematical concepts and operations like Mathematical Economics and Economics
Statistics thus it's very important to have solid mathematical foundation
Understanding written sentences and paragraphs in work
The ability to identify, assess, create alternative solutions and solve the actual problem while continuously evaluating for outcomes
Since you will be reading a lot of research materials and interpreting many graphs, analysis is very essential to be able to understand the logic and
relationship between things
Determining how a system should work and how changes in conditions and operations will affect outcomes
Knowledge of computer use and being able to understand application programs.
Should be good in written and oral communication skills; a strong command of the English language is important because your work will involve dealing
with different kinds of people
Why do most students enjoy economics? Economics is the perfect combination of numbers and words, problems and essays, calculations and
interpretations. It is both an art and a science subject. Students have the opportunity to build models which give insights into the real world, and then
to critique these models on the basis of their assumptions. There is rarely a right answer in economics but any argument put forward must be backed
up by quantitative evidence. Students ultimately enjoy economics because it allows them to employ and develop analytical and evaluative skills.
Economics graduates are well equipped, having analytical and problem-solving skills, numerical and computer skills, as well as the ability to work well
either alone or within a team. The skills, traits and attitude that will help the students succeed in the AB Economics course are as follows:
