AS/ECON 2300 3.00 must be successfully completed before AS/ECON 2350 3.00, and AS/ECON 2400 3.00 must be successfully completed before AS/ECON 2450 3.00. These courses cannot be taken concurrently. All economics majors and minors should note that half (50 per cent) of the required theory courses (AS/ECON 1000 3.00/AS/ECON 1010 3.00; AS/ECON 2300 3.00/AS/ECON 2350 3.00, AS/ECON 2400 3.00/AS/ECON 2450 3.00 and, where applicable, AS/ECON 4000 3.00/AS/ECON 4010 3.00) must be taken in the Faculty of Arts. Half (50 per cent) of the total major or minor requirements must also be taken in the Faculty of Arts. Courses taken at Atkinson, Glendon or other Faculties or universities count as out-of-Faculty courses.

Second-digit-5 AS/ECON courses may not be used to satisfy the 3000-level or the 4000-level economics requirement. Note: Students considering graduate studies in economics are encouraged to investigate how the mathematics and statistics requirements can be satisfied by equivalent courses in the Department of Mathematics and Statistics.
