Global Economy, Technology & Development
St. Lawrence University offers a Business in the Liberal Arts double major, together with an Economics major and a Global Studies major, which help students understand the functions of markets and other economic and policy-making institutions and their importance for economic and social outcomes by providing students with opportunities to learn and communicate economic ideas through writing, speaking, critical thinking and engaging in independent research. Math, Computer Science and Statistics majors also provide students with training in analytical reasoning, data analysis, programming, and data structures. This rich background is an increasingly valuable skill for students entering the workforce today.
