Welcome to a new school year!

Welcome back to school! Whether you’re a new freshman or a senior, the EUB has several events coming up to help you brush up on your economics:

  • We will be hosting a Math Review Seminar on Thursday, October 3rd at 5:30 PM in Savery 155. Come review the math skills that will be used in the 300 and 400 level courses. Topics include: algebra, multivariable calculus, optimization problems, Lagrange multiplier.
  • Our EUB members also hold weekly tutoring sessions in SAV 328. Students in any of the introductory, intermediate, or even higher level economics classes are welcome to come by and ask our knowledgeable upperclassmen about anything econ related. Please see our Tutoring Schedule for the times we are available. If you have questions about material in a 400-level class, click here to see which tutors have taken that class.
  • Tutoring is also available for students in the English Language Learner (ELL) program who have language-related questions in their economics classes.We offer comprehension assistance for students who are struggling to understand concepts, assignments, etc. due to a language barrier, and writing assistance for students with writing assignments to receive assistance with proofreading, editing, and composing well-written short answer questions. The ELL tutoring schedule can also be found on our Tutoring Schedule page.

Stay tuned for upcoming events, and we hope to see you around!
