Class Description

Course Description: Navigating the different professional opportunities and how to access them can be challenging. Geared towards students studying Economics (although all are welcome), this course aims to unveil the basics of how to leverage a student’s Berkeley degree to recruit for the professional world to increase access and equity. Students will work through five different modules that each target a different category of business- related careers. Through hands-on workshops, guest speakers, and detailed coursework, Careers in Economics, Business & Beyond will provide a 360-degree view of navigating the professional world and how to succeed in it. The five modules include the basics of recruiting, consulting, finance, tech, and a class-elected path that varies based on the semester.
