Economics & Business Economics Majors Study Abroad

Tips:

Suggested Dos Suggested Don’ts
  • Do complete 100ABC before studying abroad
  • Do complete the entirety of a core course series either abroad or at UCI
  • Do consider going your junior or senior year after you have completed basic economics and math courses at UCI because many economics courses abroad require technical mathematics skills
  • Do take courses that apply theory to the host country
  • Do choose courses with Economics content
  • Do consider fulfilling GE requirements abroad
  • Do consider fulfilling your language requirement abroad
  • Do follow the Academic Advising & Approval process for Social Sciences to ensure you earn degree credit
  • Don’t take a portion of a core course series at UCI and the other portions abroad
  • Don’t take courses that emphasize abstract theory because the content of these courses would be the same whether taught at UCI or a foreign university
  • Don’t choose a program with solely business content
  • Don’t assume you will obtain degree credit without consulting your school advisor
