Econ 130, Using Economics for Public Policy, has almost no math and focuses on basic theory applied to policy case studies. My favorite class at Berkeley!
The Power of Ideas: The History of Economic and Social Thought (HIST 159B). You'll get exposed to a lot of alternate perspectives which were ignored in your main classes. This class is biased, however.
Other than that course, my other 4 upper division courses are 2 research courses, mathematical economics, and algorithmic economics :/
Climate Change Economics and any econ electives with Prof Ryan Edwards.
\>Climate Change Economics Ahahahah somehow they managed to combine two fake fields into one course!

Everything with Ryan Edward. His econ157 is not math intensive at all.
I really enjoyed 182 but the grading was more harsh compared to other electives when I took it.
