  1. Appropriate BA Program-level requirements. See Bachelor of Arts.
  2. Economics Plan-level requirements:
    • at least seven academic course units (14 courses) in Economics with a minimum cumulative average of 75%, including:
    • at least 6.5 course units (13 courses) in Mathematics with a minimum cumulative average of 60%, including:
      • AMATH 250 or 350 (Differential Equations)
      • one of CO 227, 250, 355 (Linear Optimization)
      • one of CS 115, 135, 145 (Computer Science 1)
      • one of CS 116, 136, 230, 234 (Computer Science 2)

      • one of STAT 221, 231, 241 (Statistics)
      • STAT 321 or 331 (Applied Linear Models)
      • one additional math course

Notes:

  1. Students must achieve a cumulative average of at least 75% in the 14 economics courses counted towards the degree and a cumulative average of 60% in the 13 math courses counted towards the degree.
  2. For graduation and progression purposes, a student's averages will be calculated according to the practices of the faculty in which the student is formally registered. Should a student transfer from the Faculty of Mathematics to the Faculty of Arts (or vice versa), the student's average calculations may be revised to reflect the differing average calculation rules.
