An Economics major covers microeconomics (consumer and firm behavior, market structure), macroeconomics (growth, inflation, monetary and fiscal policy), and econometrics (statistical analysis of economic data). Coursework requires calculus, linear algebra, statistics, and most departments now strongly recommend or require advanced econometrics. The major often comes in two flavors: a BA (lighter math) and a BS or "Mathematical Economics" (heavier math, recommended for PhD-bound students).
Economics graduates are sought by financial services, consulting, government, tech (data and product analytics), and academia. The major pairs well with a CS minor for technical roles or a Math/Statistics double for quantitative finance.
