The department addresses complex systems, from economics to weather forecasting and physical, human, and regional geography. Economics is the scientific study of decision-making, analyzing tradeoffs to recommend optimal decisions, and making predictions about behavior. The Economics major includes foundational courses in microeconomics, macroeconomics, and econometrics and allows cadets to focus on business, finance, international economics, public policy, or quantitative economics. The Meteorology major uniquely focuses on the impact of weather on military operations. The program is compliant with the World Meteorological Organization and balances classical mathematical and physical treatments of the atmosphere with societal impacts. The Geospatial Science major provides international insight and cultural and physical understanding of the battle space, leveraging coursework and digital modeling techniques to help interpret regional landscapes and conflicts.
