Macroeconomics Offered Summer 2018

Campus News

The Associate of Science in Business Administration is a common degree that can set many PVCC students on a path towards finance and business opportunities. This degree  requires students to fulfill a host of classes, like an introduction to business and a principle of accounting course. One class gives a broad view on the world of economics,  Macroeconomics (ECO 201).

Former PVCC student Caleb Chacko said, “I took this course to get a good perspective on global trade and economics. Even though I already took an economics course in high school, I still did not grasp the concept well either. So I felt it important for myself to take the class again here at PVCC even though it is not a field I am planning on going into.”

Students will have the option of taking the course either online or in class, both in ten-week formats over the summer.  Both courses will be taught by Michael Schnur. The on-campus section of the course will meet on Mondays and Wednesdays from 10:15 a.m. to 12:20 p.m. in room M161 in the main building.

The online course will allow students have the ability to complete assignments on their own schedule, with exceptions to exams, which will be taken in the testing center.

The reward for taking this course is useful information that can be applied to the real world, as well as furthering their progress for their degree program.
