Advising

Academic advising for students in the Economics Department is provided from the following members of the Economics faculty: Cora Bennett, Eva Dziadula, Davin Raiha, and Forrest Spence. You can find their contact information and/or book an appointment at the bottom of this page.

These academic advisors assist students in designing a program that meets their educational and career goals. A typical plan of study for students deciding on an Economics major in their first year is as follows.  Although this progression is recommended for incoming students intending to major in Economics, there is a good deal of flexibility in scheduling for those declaring an Economics major at a later date.

*At least one of the electives must be designated as Writing Intensive (ECWI attribute) and at least 2 of the electives must be at the 40000 level (as opposed to the 30000 level).  At most one elective may be taken while abroad or at another institution.

A typical progression for an International Economics major is identical for the first two years, but is slightly different during students' junior and senior years.  Please see the International Economics major page for a more detailed progression for this major.

Students interested in becoming undergraduate Economics or International Economics majors, or simply desiring further information regarding economics courses can contact the Director of Undergraduate Studies or any academic advisor.
