The Introductory Course in Economics: Economics 111/111E

A major in economics comprises a sequence of courses that begins with Economics 111, a survey of current economic issues and problems, and an introduction to the basic tools essential for all areas of economics. Economics 111 is a requisite for all other courses in economics, and for many courses, there is no other requisite. After completing Economics 111 a student may enroll in any of a variety of applied courses.

Economics 111/111E is taught in separate sections of about 20-30 students each.  Each section covers the same material but meets on its own schedule.  (The “green section,” denoted with an “E” for environmental, pays particular attention to the economics of the environment and is recommended for students interested in environmental studies.) Students should work with their advisor to choose a section that fits well into their schedule.  Each section of Econ 111 has only a limited number of spots; if a section is closed, you should choose another section that still has space.  If you decide to try to wait for a spot to open up in a closed section, please see section below about the Wait List.

The Structure of Economics 111/111E

Economics 111 will be taught in multiple sections. Each section covers similar material but meets on its own schedule.  Students may need to be flexible on scheduling in order to enroll in Economics 111. All sections will prepare students for the next steps in the Economics major.

Each section of Econ 111 has only a limited number of spots.  If a section is closed, you should choose another section that still has space.  If you decide to try to wait for a spot to open up in a closed section, you should add your name to the Wait List (see section below.)  Please note that there is no guarantee a spot will open up.  To register for Econ 111, you should register for one lecture section plus one of the discussion sections corresponding to that lecture.

111/111E Wait Lists - FALL SEMESTER ONLY
