Minors Requirements

Minor in Economics

Requirements for the economics minor are as follows:

  • 180.101 and 180.102 Elements of Macro and Micro
  • Four elective courses at the 200 or 300 level

If you receive AP credit for either 180.101 or 180.102 you may not count those credits toward the 6-course requirement. No substitution of courses in other departments for economics electives may be made. Students who use exam credits to satisfy the AS.180.101 Elements of Macroeconomics and/or AS.180.102 Elements of Microeconomics requirements must take additional courses in the department to reach a total of 6 courses.

Study-abroad and transfer courses are approved on a case-by-case basis. In general you will be required to complete at least four of your six economics courses within the Department of Economics at Hopkins.

Minor in Financial Economics

The minor in financial economics is offered in collaboration with the Center for Financial Economics (CFE). Full requirements are on the CFE site.
