“I consider working with the economics department one of my greatest experiences while attending East Stroudsburg University. The faculty as a whole is extremely knowledgeable in a multitude of topics, extending far beyond the economic realm. While the material in any given economics course may appear daunting, the faculty is able to articulate complex material with both tact and ease. Their true talent, however, is their unique ability to accommodate the needs of each student. Whether they’re arranging an independent study for a course not currently offered or taking the time to proctor a makeup exam, they’ll always do their best to assist their students. I’ve always felt that I was being extremely well-prepared for future studies as an undergraduate and that feeling is now evident that I’m pursuing an advanced degree in economics. I’m truly proud and honored to be an alumni of the East Stroudsburg University economics program and I’d recommend it to anyone interested in an analytical career path.”

“ESU's economics department is more than just the typical college department that most students interact with. When you become an Economics student, you become part of the department family. The professors are not just professors, they are mentors that get to know each and every student and always go out of their way to make sure you are excelling. The students in the economics department are also second to none, often you can find students working together to understand the concepts in class or finding an upperclassman tutoring a lowerclassman in the department office. The economics club provides a great way for students to interact and take part in great activities like trips to Wall Street or the Federal Reserve, to take the concepts from class and see them in real life giving you a firsthand view on possible career paths. Overall the economics department is a great option for any student to make their home at ESU!”

“A degree in economics prepares students for the real world more than any other undergraduate degree that comes to mind. The course curriculum is specifically designed to ensure each student is ready for the transition from classroom to career. Beyond the curriculum, as an economics student you are backed by a Department that is second-to-none at ESU. The professors that make up the Economics’ Department genuinely care about the success of their students both in the classroom and out in the field. Furthermore, the professors push the students to be part of the campus community through participation in tutorial programs and campus clubs. Through club meetings, sponsored trips [to the NYSE], and group study sessions before big exams, I’ve built many priceless friendships with my fellow student body. As an econ student at ESU, you are part of an all-for-one and one-for-all team that is backed by some of the most brilliant professors on campus. Pursuing a degree in economics at ESU is a challenging and rewarding journey filled with experiences that will prepare you for life beyond the classroom.”
