<p>James, I was an econ major and I would strongly recommend UR for the program. The B-school (as well as UR in general) have a lot of momentum right now. The B-school expansion will be complete after your freshman year (it breaks ground in a couple of weeks). While I can’t find the individual rankings right now, Businessweek ranked UR’s econ program in the top 10 for undergrad b-schools. I would strongly recommend contacting a couple of the professors (Dean and Dolon would both be strong choices (aka Drs. Death and Doom – difficult professors, but very good) and ask away. </p>
