How much math is used in Econ courses?
Only Math 1110 is required for admission to the major, and no further math is required to complete the major. The core courses — Econ 3130, 3140, and 3210 — assume a sound knowledge of differential Calculus, at the level of Math 1110. (The 3190-3200 sequence, which can be substituted for 3210, requires Math 1120.) After completing the core courses students averse to mathematics could manage to avoid calculus almost entirely by careful selection of courses. If you hate math, though, you probably won’t be thrilled with Economics.
