Where ECON-2318 counts

Counts toward 3 more as one option among several, not as a course you must take:

  • ENV 4-YEAR BA (SUSTAINABLE ENVIRONMENTAL RESOURCE SYSTEMS)
  • ENV HONOURS BA (SUSTAINABLE ENVIRONMENTAL RESOURCE SYSTEMS)

Read from the departments' own calendar pages, where 50 of 208 programs are only partly machine-readable, so treat these as a minimum rather than the full list. Confirm with an academic advisor.
