About Us

the true story

Founded in 1973, we are the only the undergraduate economics club at the University of Michigan. Having a membership of 500 and counting, we are the largest pre-professional organization on campus and in recent years have grabbed the attention of a variety of majors ranging from economics to engineering.

Our success is largely the result of enhancing the undergraduate experience beyond the theory of economics and concentrating on practical application. Consequently, we hold a myriad of useful academic, social, and career-related events throughout the year, averaging 1-2 events per week.

Such an active schedule has earned us the reputation of producing high caliber individuals, eager to advance their career and deliver results to their respective workplaces.

our events include

  • Alumni Seminar Series
  • Career Month Series
  • Corporate Recruitment
  • Economic Forums
  • Guided Study Groups for Econ 101, 102, 401, 402
  • FED Challenge Team
  • Trip to Chicago FED
  • Current Events Chats
  • Faculty Seminar Series
  • Interview Workshops
  • Networking/Social Nights
  • Resume Workshops
