Welcome to the UCLA Department of Economics
The counselors in the UCLA Department of Economics Undergraduate Counseling Office advise current students on the requirements for the Economics and the Business Economics majors, enrollment in Economics courses, program planning for a double major, advice about studying abroad, scholarships, and referrals to various resources on the campus. The counselors also coordinate events for prospective and current students such as Bruin Day for admitted students, new student advising sessions in the summer, and commencement. For general program planning and questions about the College and University requirements, students should meet with a counselor in the College.

STEM Certified
We are also pleased to announce that we are now STEM Certified. In particular, the Bachelor of Arts in Economics and the Bachelor of Arts in Business Economics have been reclassified as STEM majors (CIP Code 45.0603: Econometrics and Quantitative Economics). This change is in effect for students with a Degree Expected Term of Fall Quarter 2019 or later. It does not apply retroactively. Also note that the degree designation remains a Bachelor of Arts for the Economics and Business Economics majors.
