The liberal-arts-based undergraduate program in economics within the Bellarmine University Rubel School of Business develops the tools needed to understand a broad spectrum of economic events in both the private and public sectors. Economics provides the analytical tools that employers often seek. In addition, a degree in economics provides an excellent background for students planning to pursue graduate degrees in economics, finance, international studies, public policy, and the law. Students may choose to major in economics alone, or pair the major with a complementary degree such as accounting, actuarial science, business, or foreign language and international studies. About two-thirds of our economics majors pursue internships at local businesses, or government internships in Frankfort or Washington. About one-third choose to study abroad in countries as diverse as China, Australia, Japan, and France.
A new interdisciplinary minor in Sports Studies at Bellarmine that requires 18 credit hours of cross-discipline study in the areas of economics, communication, health, psychology and law teaches students how to analyze this area as sports becomes a stronger and stronger force in business and popular culture. Bellarmine’s Institute of Media, Culture and Ethics plays a critical role in providing supplemental activities such as sports-related seminars and guest speakers.
