The course uses real-world economic applications to help students better grasp a range of economic concepts, including macro- and microeconomic concepts. The course covers the American free enterprise system and addresses how this system affects the global economy.

Examining the world of business, money, banking, and finance helps students understand how economics is applied domestically and globally.
