Explore Business and MoreThe Wharton BS in Economics—It’s aDifferent Way of LearningWharton provides innovative interdisciplinaryoptions and active experiential learning in business,combined with all the resources of Penn.Wharton offers a bachelor of science in economics,but studying business at Wharton and studyingeconomics in a liberal arts program are very different.If you major in economics at a liberal arts school,you’ll take courses focused on theories, history, andmodeling. You’ll start with a theory or abstract ideaand then look for problems to understand how thetheory applies.Start your own business, manage a clothingbrand, or even build a new car—with a degreefrom Wharton you can go wherever your pathleads you and be more effective in the careeryou choose.At Wharton you’ll study a range of businesssubjects—from accounting to entrepreneurshipRed Rocks Desert Leadership Trekto policy. Classes focus on problem solving withreal-world examples; you’ll look for solutions andthen examine theories to see how they might apply.Flexibility and OpportunityEvery semester you can take classes at Wharton andat least one other school at Penn, including eight ofour graduate schools. In fact, 40% of your requiredcourses will be taken outside of Wharton. Why?Because studying business within social, political,and historical contexts makes you a better agentof change. It also means that you will have evenmore opportunities and paths to choose fromwhen you graduate.USE THE ENTIRE UNIVERSITY4 undergraduate schools and8 graduate schools to explore your interests4,200 courses“What I have gotten out of my two years of Whartonthus far is the opportunity to try anything andeverything, to meet new and diverse people whohave varied interests, and to sample vastly differentfields of study.”Alaric Qin Los Angeles, CA3
