Standard 4—Economics
Commencement
Students will use a variety of intellectual skills to demonstrate their understanding of how
the United States and other societies develop economic systems and associated institutions
to allocate scarce resources, how major decision-making units function in the U.S. and other
national economies, and how an economy solves the scarcity problem through market and
nonmarket mechanisms.
1. The study of economics requires an understanding of major economic concepts and
systems, the principles of economic decision making, and the interdependence of economies
and economic systems throughout the world.
