About the course

The Bachelor of Science degree in Agricultural Economics, with an option in Policy and Economic Analysis is designed to assist in the development of economic theory and quantitative analysis skills that students can apply to analyze and communicate about agricultural policy and economic issues in Texas, the nation, and the world. The option equips students with analytical skills to understand the causes, nature, and effects of government participation in agriculture, and interrelationship of the American agriculture and agribusiness sector with the political and economic system, public administration, and interest group representation. A student’s educational experience is further enriched with supportive high impact opportunities such as participation in the Agriculture and Natural Resource Program (ANRP) Congressional Internship, Texas State Government Internships, Commodity groups and Lobby internship, Study Abroad and Independent research. With the aid of faculty and staff advisors, students in the Policy and Economic Analysis option design their plan of study reflecting their particular future goals by incorporating higher-level electives outside the department. Students interested in graduate education may focus on developing a strong background in the following areas: quantitative analysis, economic theory, and applied economics. Those interested in entering law school may focus on courses in law, political science, and technical writing. Furthermore, those students interested in careers in government and policy may focus on courses in policy, political science, and management. Scholarships - View all scholarships Internships
