The Economics Club is a student-run organization created with the purpose of promoting an interest in economics and related areas across campus. In 2016 the Club became a Student Chapter of the National Association for Business Economics.
The club is active in inviting professional economists to speak on campus, organizing educational trips, participating in the Federal Reserve Challenge and community-based research.
