Program Requirements

The Honours Economics program (B.A. and B.Com.) consists of 30 specified credits of Honours courses and a further 12 credits of approved Economics courses. Honours students are also required to complete prerequisite Math courses in basic Calculus and linear algebra.

All Honours students should consult the handout describing the Honours and Joint Honours programs available in the Economics Department Office, Leacock Building Rm. 443, and at: .

Normally, to be awarded an Honours degree, a student must obtain a 3.00 program GPA in the required and complementary credits in Economics, and a CGPA of 3.00. For a First Class Honours degree, the minimum requirements are normally a 3.50 program GPA in the required and complementary credits in Economics, and a CGPA of 3.50.

Required Math Prerequisites

All Honours students must complete three Math prerequisites. A sequence of two Calculus courses with a grade of C or higher should be completed prior to entering the Honours program. Prior to their U2 year, students should complete MATH 133. These requirements can be met by having passed equivalent courses at CEGEP or elsewhere. Honours students are encouraged, but not required, to take MATH 222 Calculus 3.

* Note: Students without high school Calculus take MATH 139; those with high school Calculus take MATH 140.
