Note(s) on Requirements


  • Due to the high level of overlap between the requirements, students who minor in economics may not also major in financial economics.
  • For students minoring in economics, as well as minoring in finance,
    • ECON 241  must count to the finance minor and cannot count to the economics minor; and
    • ECON 341  and ECON 342  may count to either the economics minor or the finance minor, but may not be counted toward both.

Transfer of Credit Toward the Minor


The awarding of transfer credit is at the discretion of the department chair. Students minoring in economics must take at least one of the economics core courses at Oberlin. Students should obtain preliminary approval of transfer credit in economics from the department chair prior to taking economics courses elsewhere if they want them to count toward the minor.
