"Economics is the study of mankind in the ordinary business of life." – Alfred Marshall
Welcome to the Department of Economics at Notre Dame University-Louaize (NDU). Our department is dedicated to providing students with a rigorous and relevant education in economics, equipping them with analytical skills, critical thinking, and practical knowledge essential for success in diverse professional paths.
We are proud to offer a Bachelor of Science (BS) in Economics, which has earned the International Association of Applied Economics (ASEPELT) Certification of Excellence—an acknowledgment of our commitment to academic quality and international relevance. The program provides a strong foundation in microeconomics, macroeconomics, and econometrics, complemented by applied courses addressing real-world economic issues. Graduates are well prepared for careers in the private sector, public institutions, international organizations, research, or further academic study.
Our programs are part of the Faculty of Business Administration and Economics, accredited by the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB)—a distinction held by fewer than six percent of business schools worldwide. This ensures that our students benefit from high academic standards, internationally recognized curricula, and strong industry connections.
Our faculty comprises accomplished researchers and professionals who blend academic expertise with practical insights. Through classes, seminars, and departmental events, students engage closely with faculty in an environment that fosters the open exchange of ideas and perspectives.
I invite you to explore our website to learn more about our programs, faculty, and activities, and to discover how the Department of Economics at NDU can support your academic and professional ambitions.
