Applications to current policy issues will be emphasized throughout.Economics 2 may be taken under the Non-Recording Option (NRO). It does not count towards the major or minor. The course has "negative" prerequisites: Students who have previously taken Economics 1 or who have been exempted from Economics 1 at matriculation may not enroll in Economics 2.
