International Trends in Economics Degrees During the 1990s.
Siegfried, John J.; Round, David K.
Journal of Economic Education, v32 n3 p203-18 Sum 2001
Presents evidence of a substantial decline in undergraduate degrees in economics from 1992 through 1996 in Australia, Canada, Germany, and the United States. Finds no correlation between decline and degree cost, tightened grading standards, or degree requirements. Finds increased interest in business education to be the predominant cause. (RLH)
