Message from the Department Chair
As a part of the W. Frank Barton School of Business at Wichita State University, the
Department of Economics is committed to excellence in teaching, research and publication.
We're also strongly interested in supporting the local community as well as serving
the university community. We are involved in national and international organizations
and programs that expand our horizons and bring us new ideas and associates. These
contacts benefit our students through scholarships and exchange programs that offer
unique opportunities for travel and learning outside the everyday experience.
In this site you will find information on programs we offer and the requirements
to obtain a Bachelor's, Master's or Minor in Economics. You can browse through our
course catalog where we have provided course descriptions for students' use in planning
or transferring credits. Also in this site we introduce you to our faculty members
along with brief information about their research interests and areas of teaching
expertise.
We want this site to be of great service to our students, so browse through and let
us know what you think. If you prefer the old fashion way of communicating, please
give us a call at (316) 978-3220 or drop by the office at 115 Clinton Hall. It's on
the first floor of our home in the Barton School of Business.

Chair, Department of Economics
