Department of Economics



The department of Economics plays a key role in implementing the core concept of encouraging students to explore two academic emphases in addition to their major area of study. It is pivotal to research and teaching activities in the other liberal arts programs in the university. The department has taken full advantage of the strength of law education at CUPL. It is committed to developing future cross-disciplinary leaders who are well-versed in both economics and laws. It aspires to become the first-class program among the peers in China, as well as an internationally recognized program for professionals in economics.
