USC: New Minor Program in Economics
USC Department of Economics - College of Arts and Sciences
Minor Program in Economics
RATIONALE
The Minor in Economics provides training in economic theory and methods at the intermediate level and at the level of upper class undergraduate field courses. It is designed to provide a student in allied fields of business, the social sciences, the natural sciences, and engineering with a familiarity with the economic perspective and methodology as it is applied on areas of common interest. These areas include but are not limited to, environmental management, financial markets, public management and policy, industrial organization, organizational efficiency and many others. In these areas, an understanding of the nature of the problems being studied is made more acute and complete with an appreciation of the implications of rational human behavior in dealing with the problem of scarce resources and the resulting incentives that ensue. This unique perspective to human behavior, the organization of institutions, and the resulting interplay is something that the discipline brings to the table.
In addition, the minor in economics is especially apt for students whose analytical and methodological skill sets in their majors coincide with those required for work in the economics major, roughly training in mathematical and empirical analysis, that would enable them to grasp economic principles at little added cost but with substantial benefits in terms of employability, workplace efficiency, and upward mobility. This will be especially true of students majoring in mathematics, computer science, physics, chemistry, statistics, and engineering. Increasingly, professionals with these skill sets are being tapped to bring these skills to bear on problems that intersect with those traditionally considered within the purview of the social sciences (e.g., networks, evolutionary games, regulation, financial markets). Opportunities for synergy are ripe in both cases.
The minor in economics will also make the transition to graduate or professional programs in economics, business or public policy easier for students with training other than these fields.
ACADEMIC REQUIREMENTS
1. Qualifying Requirements. A student opting to minor in economics must have completed the principles course sequence in economics consisting of Economics 21 (Microeconomics) and Economics 22 (Macroeconomics). As an alternative, a student who has completed Economics 1N (Principles of Economics with Taxation and Agrarian Reform) may minor in economics provided that his or her academic performance in the course indicates that he will complete the minor program at a standard acceptable to the Department. The Chair, in consultation with the faculty, will render judgment on admission on a case to case basis for the latter case.
2. Completion Requirements. (a) Six units of intermediate economic theory satisfied by taking Economics 121 (Intermediate Microeconomics) or its equivalent, and Economics 122 (Intermediate Macroeconomics) or its equivalent. (b) Nine units in upper level field and methods courses in economics and allowed equivalents.
PROCEDURAL REQUIREMENTS
1. An applicant for the minor program in economics must complete the application form for the program. Upon approval the student will be included in the list of student minors in economics. This will entitle the student to enroll in the listed economics courses in his/her minor program.
2. In all cases, the student must carry the normally required study load of his/her major program. Thus, a student minor in economics must proceed at a pace that is expected in his/her major program.
3. The grant of the credential of a minor in economics will only be possible if the student completes all the requirements for his major program.
4. If the requirements for the major and the minor program in economics are completed to the satisfaction of the Office of the Registrar, the Major Department Chair, the Chair of the Department of Economics, and the Dean(s) of both Programs, the student is recommended for the credential by the Vice-President for Academic Affairs and approved by the University President through the awarding of a Certificate of Completion. The student’s records will then reflect the completion of a “Minor in Economics” along with the student major field.

Degree Programs
Bachelor of Science in Chemical Engineering
Master of Science in Chemical Engineering
Master of Engineering major in Chemical Engineering
Bachelor of Science in Chemical Engineering (BSChE)
The five-year program is designed to emphasize a more practice-oriented learning process. Laboratory practicals, industrial exposure and integrative projects make up about one-third of the program credits; the rest are academic courses designed to thoroughly prepare the students for the diverse challenges of the profession. The program has a PAASCU-Level III accreditation.
Master of Science in Chemical Engineering (MSChE)
The program is oriented towards a specialization in biochemical engineering. It is designed to develop in the students an integrated understanding of the physical, chemical and biological processes in the biosynthesis and transport of a product molecule. Upon graduation, students would have been skilled in developing and applying concepts that will lead to improvements or innovations in the upstream and downstream processing of commercially important compounds that are of biological origin. In the program, the student has the opportunity to develop a research thesis in one of the department’s three focus areas of research: bioconversions engineering, bioseparations engineering, and biological wastewater treatment engineering. The program is best taken full-time and would take a minimum of two years to complete.
Master of Engineering major in Chemical Engineering (MEngChE)
The program is the non-thesis version of the MSChE program; the thesis and industry internship requirements in the latter program are substituted with core and discipline related courses. This part-time program can be completed in only two years and a half if a student would enroll full-time during two summer terms; otherwise, the study will require a minimum of three years to complete.
Short Trainings and Programs
Review Program for Chemical Engineer Licensure Examination
The program services those graduates who are qualified to take the chemical engineering licensure examination given by the Philippine Professional Regulations Commission twice every year. It consists of lectures and refresher tests organized according to the three examination areas: Chemical and Physical Principles, Chemical Engineering Principles and General Engineering. A three-day mock examination caps the entire program. The pool of review instructors is composed of experienced faculty members coming from the chemical engineering department and the other USC departments of chemistry, physics, industrial engineering and civil engineering. The review sessions run from January to April and from June to October.
Workshop for Chemical Engineering Laboratory Instructors
The six-day workshop aims to: (a) provide adequate preparation for the non-USC instructors who intend to require their students to do off-campus experiments in the USC chemical engineering laboratories, (b) assist future instructors in designing and implementing practical laboratory experiments for the demonstration of some fundamental concepts and unit operations in chemical engineering, (c) facilitate the sharing of instructors’ experiences in the handling of ChE laboratory courses, and (d) facilitate the formulation of innovative ideas on how to optimize the learning of concepts and skills by a student in the laboratory.
BIO+ Training Series: Basic Laboratory Fermentation Training
The two-day training aims to address the needs of chemical engineers who wish to learn the basics or update their skills in operating a laboratory fermenter. The participants should preferably have a basic background on microbiology and biochemistry prior to the course.
The lecture part of the training introduces the participants to the basic aspects of fermentation processes: choice of appropriate microorganism and substrate in order to produce a particular fermentation product, nutritional requirements and growth conditions for favorable microbial reproduction, main modes of fermentation operation and the application of these modes in certain physiological or fermentation studies, and the important parts of a fermentation system.
The practical part of the training is done in the laboratory where the participants carry out the basic steps in doing a fermentation experiment including preparation of culture media, sterilization, fermenter operation, sampling, data gathering and data processing.
BIO+ Training Series: Fundamentals of Bioprocess Engineering
This four-day course primarily deals with the fundamental aspects of biochemical processes. The series of lectures and exercises focus on material and energy balances involving biological materials (e.g., microorganisms), design of bioreactors, and recovery/purification techniques of important biological products.
The laboratory hands-on activities include preparation of fermentation media and solutions, sterilization, sampling, operation of the bioreactor, cell immobilization, separation of product by ultrafiltration, analysis of samples using gas chromatography (GC), and analysis of data.
BIO+ Training Series: Fundamentals of Biological Wastewater Treatment
The two-day training addresses the training needs of those who are involved in the operation of wastewater treatment facilities (WWTF) and those allied to the practice of environmental engineering. The lecture part of the training focuses on the following topics: fundamental concepts in biological wastewater treatment, biological treatment process (applicability and limitations), troubleshooting in anaerobic and anaerobic treatment reactors, and WWTF monitoring parameters. An actual performance monitoring and evaluation of two laboratory-scale reactors (activated sludge and UASB) is built into the training program.
