Sure, but economics itself can be studied scientifically.

Can it? Can’t exactly do double-blind case controlled studies. More importantly though, economics is rarely studied scientifically. If nothing else, allowing the existing economists of the world to call themselves scientists is not deserved. Until economics is approached with the academic rigour of history and sociology it shouldn’t really be called a science.
