Economics Oregon Transfer from Central Oregon Community College is a Campus Associate Economics degree that prepares you for a Business career. Economics is the study of how society allocates its scarce resources to satisfy its many needs and wants. The focus of lower division economics courses at COCC is on how the American economy works. The U.S. economy relies primarily on free markets to allocate resources and to provide final goods and services. To understand how markets work, students study the forces of supply and demand. They also look closely at both competitive markets and monopoly markets. Economics studies the role of government in the economy both in promoting social objectives and in keeping the economy healthy through fiscal and monetary policies. Economics gives an understanding of how the U.S. produces and distributes the goods and services it needs and enjoys. This program is good preparation for careers in business, engineering, resource management or government, as well as solid training for graduate or law school. The Associate of Arts Oregon Transfer degree meets the state of Oregon Transfer degree requirements, allowing students to transfer to an Oregon public university and some out-of-state universities having met all lower-division general education requirements; with the appropriate course planning, all lower-division major requirements may also be met.
