What is Economics? | College Majors | College Degrees | Study Hall

What can you do with an economics major?

If you choose an economics degree you can expect to study mathematics, history, and statistics in order to apply complex models and formulas to a wide range of problems faced in business, finance, and government. Basically, economics is the study of the people behind an economy, what motivates them, and why they behave the way they do. If you’re a logical thinker with a knack for creative problem-solving, economics might be the major for you.

Self thought No degree. I’m self thought. It’s one of my hobbies but I use this to manage businesses. So far I’ve launched 6 successful operations all under 30. I’d recommend Econ to anyone wanting to invest and launch businesses.

It's sad how economics got reduced into data science these days.

Amazing video! The best breakdown of Economics I've ever heard and...finally understood. Thank you!

[fiatal_tudos]

Would it be possible to do an episode on International Relations or Global Studies?

[thickyoonglesinwhitedenimi]

this was so helpful, thank you! i had been so unsure about what majors to take cause everything just seemed blehh to me. im a business student and all i know is that i definitely do not want to do finance - i did not have the interest to sustain my focus so it quickly became a burden to study. accounting seems like a safe choice since it has broad opportunities and im fairly good with it and able to get through the work but have been on the fence about economics however this video was so affirming and made me think positively about the subject, especially considering i wanted to be involved with mathematics a little bit but was apprehensive about it being a minor or second major because the job opportunities are not plenty with that combination of accounting and maths. so accounting and economics it is!

Great video 😇💖 hoping for more of these soon

[trevinbeattie]

I wonder if research is being done on how we might transition to a post-scarcity economy? I think this is going to become an issue in the not-so-distant future as an increasing amount of jobs is done by robots, automation, and artificial intelligence. Seems like a topic on which we ought to get a good start.

one stop destination, i lked the the content and pressentation

[ryananguiano]

y'all should do a video on accounting!

[jonathanrobles]

This is what I want to finish my education in. But I also want to get my Math/Stats down pat and be able to code. Will there be any jobs where the intersection of those 3 things be useful? What besides actuarial science or other professions are out there that need those three skills to work?

[shikshaaudit]

Is economics with law a good course to take?
What about the career prospects in that

[freddytackos]

wish I had this in 2013! i would've switched my economics minor into a major!

[islamatikulislamatikul]

Pelease make a Video on International Relations

[emmanuelameyaw]

Don't study economics. It is not a vocation.
