The Department of Economics is an integral part of the Faculty of Arts and Social
Sciences (FASS) although, the Faculty of Business offers Economics both as minor
and majoring the BBA program. The clamor for a full blown program or degree on Economics
has always been echoed by the students in view of the increasing demand for professional
economist needed in the various business and service sectors of the society.

Akin to the university’s slogan “where leaders are created” the primordial goal
of the program is to produce future leaders of competent economists who are ready
to compete and respond to the increasing requirement of the economic sector and
the aspirations of the students.
The Bachelor of Social Science in Economics (BSS Economics) offers a background
for careers in finance, banking, as an economist in a public or private organization,
in International/UN agencies, multi-national companies, industrial sectors, public
service, planning commission and many others. The Economics as a discipline provides
solid foundation for wide ranging opportunities in other multidisciplinary areas
like business, law, journalism, engineering and even successful professionals and
political leaders.
