Economics - Kansas City Kansas Community College

Economics from Kansas City Kansas Community College is a Campus Associate Economics degree that prepares you for a Business career. Economics is a multifaceted discipline in the family of social sciences and is concerned with scarcity of resources (its central assumption) and all of the problems resulting from that condition. In general economics is the study of production, distribution and consumption of goods and services. On the basis of one of its central assumptions, the world is a world of finite resources. Economics has evolved to include a set of principles, methods and theories so as to provide answers to what shall we produce, how shall we produce, how much shall we produce and for whom shall we produce? Attempting to answer these questions requires "technical capital" (knowledge, skills, methodologies), and "cultural capital" (a sense of priorities, awareness and direction) at both the individual and the organizational (social) level. Furthermore, the productivity of individuals as well as the organization is contingent upon the acquisition of an adequate amount of these variables. Economics , at both levels is well equipped to aid individuals in acquiring the technical and the cultural capitals in order to make the interaction between the two more fluid, productive, amicable and innovative. Economics can provide the necessary foundation to those aspiring to pursue a career in the fields of business, finance, education, health care, insurance, stock market, government, international business and public administration among others.
