Solution

The correct option is D No error
When a plural noun is a proper name for a singular object or collective unit, a singular verb is used and vice versa. In the given sentence, 'Economics' is denoted as a singular object. 'Was' is a singular verb. 'Which' is the correct conjunction used to join two interdependent sentences. The preposition 'in' is correctly used to show a place.
Thus, the given sentence is without any error. Hence, option D is the correct answer.
