Bachelor of Science in Business Economics

APU’s rigorous business economics major prepares students to make sound business decisions, providing a solid business foundation for in-depth study of advanced economic systems, labor concerns, financial markets, environmental economics, urban and regional economics, and international trade. Students also explore the economics of religion, a Christian’s place in the business world, and the principles of ethical decision making.

The program features business faculty who remain connected to businesses in their areas of expertise and provide internship contacts for students. It also gives students the opportunity to participate in organizations such as Scholars for Business Achievement, which provides students with networking and experience, or Enactus, which allows them to apply their learning to solve real-world business economics problems. Business economics majors leave APU ready to guide their businesses through a complex economic environment.
