Research
Several research opportunities are available to undergraduate economics majors. Working closely with a faculty member in connection with a special studies course or a senior thesis project provides the student with the opportunity for an in-depth exploration of a topic of the student’s choosing.

Students may also become involved with faculty research through employment as an undergraduate research assistant. For more information, please contact the Economics Department Director of Undergraduate Studies.
