Students who intend to major in Economics should include ECON 1100 and ECON 1110 in the first year, since these are prerequisites for all other Economics courses. In selecting other first-year courses, students have a great deal of flexibility. However, in selecting courses you should make sure they are consistent with the requirements of the program in which you are registered.
In selecting courses, students in the General program should also consider the requirements of the Honours programs since, after the second year, students frequently decide that they would like to pursue an Honours degree. If you initially select courses without concern for the Honours requirements, switching in later years may lengthen the time required to complete the program.
ECON 2210, ECON 2220, ECON 2310, ECON 2320, ECON 2110 and ECON 2120 should be taken in the second year. You should not delay taking these until Summer or Intersession, since there is no guarantee they will be offered. Also, all third-year courses are not offered in each semester (or year) so do not delay taking a course you may want or need.
In both the General and Honours programs, statistics is required.
In the first and second year economic courses, some elementary algebra is required. In this case, the mathematics provides additional structure that is difficult to convey in a picture.

The Major Research Paper is a scholarly essay/research project that shows evidence of critical analysis and understanding on a topic approved by the student’s supervisor and acknowledged by the program area.
Students may wish to complete a Major Research Paper (ECON-8960) as one of the 8 courses in the M2 year. Interested students must first secure an advisor for their paper. Once an advisor is confirmed, students may register in ECON-8960 and select a second reader.
Upon completion of the Major Research Paper the student will deliver a Final Oral Defense. Following defense, the student will complete the Final Document Submission (Deposit) prior to Convocation.
