The Department of Political Economy at the University of Toronto was founded in 1888. In 1982, it was split into the Department of Economics and the Department of Political Science.

Economics is by far the most popular discipline among undergraduate students enrolled in the Faculty of Arts and Science. Nearly seventy percent of all students take at least one course in economics during their undergraduate studies, and students earn more credits in economics courses than in courses in any other discipline.

The Department of Economics offers a wide variety of programs to undergraduate students, ranging from the Economics Minor, Major, and Specialist programs, to various joint programs, including the very popular Specialist program in Commerce and Finance, offered jointly with the Rotman School of Management.
