The Economics Department offers seminars to first-year students building on the College of Social and Behavioral Science's program on becoming a college student. In addition to discussing important topics in independent living, academic success, and using University resources, we add economics content on the general topic of the economics behind our lives. Relevant readings will be drawn from Real World Micro and Real World Macro. Under the guidance of an experienced graduate student, students will discuss these readings, developing economic concepts and applying them to their own lives.
Open to Undergraduate Freshmen only.
Permission is required for interchange registration during the add/drop period only.
