Academic Affairs
Committee
Welcome
to the Cal UEA Academic Committee. The Academic Affairs Committee strives
to complement the theories and perspectives posited inside the classroom
by providing outlets for discussion and exploration outside the classroom.
We wish to motivate all students interested in the study of economics,
and by affording them outside sources such as peer advising, we work
to ensure that they have all of their academic questions answered. The
committee also understands that the reputable faculty at institutions
such as U.C. Berkeley can be intimidating to students; thus, our committee
and the Student Learning Center on campus work together to offer academic
support to all undergraduates in economics via individual, drop-in,
and group tutoring. Furthermore, we hold events that expose our members
to the advantages of pursuing a postbaccalaureate degree in economics.
We host informative workshops and enlightening activities (such as Honors
Thesis Forums) that prepare the ambitious student for the formidable
process of qualifying to attend prestigious graduate programs in the
nation.
Professional Affairs Committee
The
Professional Affairs Committee centers around giving students as much
exposure to the business world as possible. Committee members are encouraged
to develop their own ideas for events and coordinate them either alone
or in teams. Those seeking internships or full-time jobs should join
PA because it offers them a number of opportunities to personally meet
recruiters. By organizing an event or volunteering at the Internship
Fair, members can have one-to-one interaction with employers. The committee
meets every other Monday. To be placed on the PA email list,
email Sherri or Phil. Events of the past include:
-. Wells Fargo Mock Interview Workshop
-. Career Options for Econ Majors
-. Merrill Lynch Information Session
-. Tour of the Federal Reserve building in SF
Social Affairs Committee
This committee
creates a friendly social environment by providing members with opportunities
to interact with fellow undergraduates, graduates, faculties, alumni,
and professionals through a variety of social events. Some of the coming
events are student-faculty get-togethers, member parties, visits to
business offices and other fieldtrips. In addition, the Social Activities
Committee acts as a liaison between the UEA and other clubs and organizations.
Marketing Committee
Welcome
to the Cal UEA Marketing Committee. Information regarding this committee
will be posted very soon. In the meantime, if you have any comments
or if you wish to join the marketing committee, please contact Reva
Tembe for more information.
