Economics provides a sequential course of study that prepares you for transfer to four-year institutions with an economics major or acquisition of economics proficiency necessary for career fields that emphasize the value of familiarity with economics or accounting. Students are required to complete 60 semester units that are eligible for transfer to the California State University, including both of the following (1) The Intersegmental General Education Transfer Curriculum (IGETC) or the California State University General Education – Breadth Requirements and (2) 23 semester units with a grade of C or better in the major and maintaining an overall minimum grade point average (GPA) of at least 2.0 in all CSU transferable coursework. A “P” (Pass) grade is not an acceptable grade for courses in the major. Students are advised to consult with a counselor and/or the department chair for additional information and to verify transfer requirements.
