does uc sand diego have a good economics department for undergrads?

Question

i got into ucsd, ucd and ucsb and am majoring in economics. where should i go???

Answer 1

First -- congratulations. Getting into three UC schools is something to feel good about. All of the UC schools are highly rated.

If you are interested in economics, the best of those three is UC-San Diego. While there are probably four or five economics departments in California that are better (i.e., Berkeley, UCLA, USC, Stanford) the fact is that there are probably 40 states in the US where UCSD would be the best in the state. It is an excellent department.

UC-Davis is also very good. It would be a better choice for you if you are interested in Agricultural Economics -- but otherwise, UCSD dominates it.
