The Career Preparation Seminar (Econ 210) is a one-credit class meant to assist economics majors with preparation for their careers. It includes discussions about résumés, course planning, networking, graduate school, and learning about various careers that several of our alumni have pursued.

In this course, BYU economics alumni share their experiences with their current and previous jobs and their advice for current students. This is a great opportunity for students to hear from alumni who have experience working and can provide valuable advice about the steps needed to a great career. These alumni represent a wide variety of career paths such as management consulting, economic consulting, law, tech, finance, supply chain, government, strategy, cyber security, investment banking, data science, economic development, public policy, venture capital, non-profit management, and others.

The class is offered once a week during fall and winter semesters. Please check the Course Schedule for when this class will be offered next.
