Students may apply for admission to a program once 30 units have been completed, ECON 201 is completed with at least a C- grade, the minimum cumulative grade point average (CGPA) is met and the ECON /BUEC program GPA is met.
The department announces the minimum CGPA below which students will not normally be considered for admission to its programs.
Applications with appropriate documentation should be filed with the departmental advisor. Students who are not accepted upon initial application may reapply.
Coninuation in Program
To continue in an economics program, students must maintain a 2.0 CGPA.

BUEC courses are offered jointly by the Faculty of Business Administration and the Department of Economics. They may count for credit in either business administration or economics programs, but not for both.
Degree Requirements
All honours students must meet BA degree requirements as described in the Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences section. Students should fulfil Faculty requirements early in their programs and obtain broadly based backgrounds before entering upper division courses.
For a course to fulfil a prerequisite, or for a required course to be accepted in an economics honours program, students must have achieved a grade of C- or higher.

Students complete 120 units, as specified below.
Lower Division Requirements
Students complete the following, with at least a C- grade in each course, prior to program admission.
The principal elements of theory concerning utility and value, price and costs, factor analysis, productivity, labor organization, competition and monopoly, and the theory of the firm. Students with credit for ECON 200 cannot take ECON 103 for further credit. Quantitative/Breadth-Soc.

Two 400 division ECON courses (excluding ECON 402, 403, 431, 435, BUEC 433 and BUS 485)
* honours students who have successfully completed both MATH 232 and 251 need not complete ECON 331. However, at least 50 upper division units in economics must still be completed.
Early Access to Upper Division Courses
Students normally cannot enter ECON upper division courses during the first 60 units, but for those who have the minimum Ά‘ΟγΤ°AV grade point average required to access upper division ECON/BUEC courses, the following exceptions are permitted.
Students who earn a grade of A- or better at Ά‘ΟγΤ°AV on their first attempt in ECON 201 may enrol for ECON 302 and 305, and all courses for which they have satisfied the prerequisites, once 30 units is completed.
Students who earn an A- grade or better at Ά‘ΟγΤ°AV on their first attempt in BUEC 232 or STAT 270 may enrol for BUEC 333 once they have completed 30 units. These upper division courses will count towards Department of Economics and Ά‘ΟγΤ°AV upper division requirements. See and course descriptions for access information.
Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences Honours Requirements
For all bachelor of arts (BA) honours programs, students complete at least 120 units, which includes
- at least 60 units that must be completed at Ά‘ΟγΤ°AV
- satisfaction of the writing, quantitative, and breadth requirements
- students complete at least 60 upper division units, which must include at least 48 units in upper division courses in a Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences honours program; no more than 15 upper division units that have been transferred from another institution can be used toward this requirement
- Students complete lower division requirements for at least one Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences honours program
- students are required to achieve an overall cumulative grade point average (CGPA) and upper division CGPA of at least 3.0, and an honours program CGPA and upper division CGPA of at least 3.0
Writing, Quantitative, and Breadth Requirements
Students admitted to Ά‘ΟγΤ°AV beginning in the fall 2006 term must meet writing, quantitative and breadth requirements as part of any degree program they may undertake. See for university-wide information.

Additional Breadth | 6 units outside the student’s major subject (may or may not be B-designated courses, and will likely help fulfil individual degree program requirements) Students choosing to complete a joint major, joint honours, double major, two extended minors, an extended minor and a minor, or two minors may satisfy the breadth requirements (designated or not designated) with courses completed in either one or both program areas. |

Residency Requirements and Transfer Credit
The University’s residency requirement stipulates that, in most cases, total transfer and course challenge credit may not exceed 60 units, and may not include more than 15 as upper division work.
Elective Courses
In addition to the courses listed above, students should consult an academic advisor to plan the remaining required elective courses.
