Department of Economics Programs

 

Economics programs are "TYPE 2" Subject POSts and therefore require specific courses, a minimum GPA and/or minimum course grades for enrolment. There are three steps to enrolling in a TYPE 2 Subject POSt. Refer to the UofTM Registration Guide.

Enrolment in Economics programs is based on grades in ECO 100Y5 and, in some cases, MAT133Y5/134Y5/135Y5/137Y5 and a minimum cumulative GPA.

Please note that programs are subject to change from year to year. It is advisable that you consult the current Academic Calendar and read entry requirements carefully. Students should also review Degree Requirements prior to selecting course.
