Economics@Work (Econ 208) is an invited alumni speaker series that allows students to discover the wide array of career paths available to economics majors and the role economics could play in their careers. In Economics@Work, undergraduates are offered a regular opportunity to network and interact with alumni from the Department of Economics. You’ll discover that economists are engaged in a wide array of professions from investment banking, finance and government, to legislation, advocacy, and online sales and marketing, among many others.
