  • ECON 103 - Economics Perspectives on Environmental Problems


    3 credits

    Description
    This course examines the relationship between economics and environmental problems. Specifically, students learn about interaction between the economy and the environment, as well as how economic analysis can be used to help solve environmental problems. The analysis considers the economic efficiency and equity dimensions, places environmental problems in a historical context, and contrasts the strategies needed to tackle environmental problems at the local versus the global level.   ECON 103 does not count towards the Economics Minor, but it may be used as a directed economic elective in the Economics Major.  Not open to students with prior credit for either ECON 200 or ECON 201.
