The Student Experience

There’s more to studying economics at Oxy than what happens in the classroom.

You can connect with fellow students, pursue research alongside faculty, hear directly from current economics majors, and find the resources and support to make the most of your experience in the department. It’s easy to find opportunities to explore your interests, build relationships with faculty and peers, and shape an economics experience that reflects your own goals and curiosity.
