Program Introduction
The BS Economics program is intended to meet the challenges of a dynamically changing global economy. It aims to prepare students for a competitive environment by imparting knowledge, building skills, and an attitude to excel.
Industry-academia link-building sessions (seminars, webinars, and conferences) are conducted on recent economic issues to orient students on the current industry trends. Study-oriented industry tours to the Stock Market, Chamber of Commerce, and Pakistan Bureau of Statistics are organized to provide them a practical learning exposure.
A distinctive feature of this program is that it provides students an insightful exposure to global and national economic policy institutes through regular interactions with industry experts from the World Bank, State Bank of Pakistan, Planning Commission of Pakistan, Ministry of Finance, Sustainable Development Policy Institute (SDPI) and Pakistan Institute of Development Economics (PIDE).
BS Economics students can also choose from three specialized elective streams — Public Policy, Data Science, and Finance — allowing them to tailor their degree according to their academic interests and career goals.
