Strength of Economics program

<p>While I am aware of the strength of the natural sciences, I wanted to get opinions on the strength of Haverford's economics program.</p>

<p>It’s a great department. It’s always among the five most popular departments for majors. Great faculty doing interesting research and committed to students. Lots of awesome lectures. In fact, this year an alumnus endowed a major public lecture and the first speaker will be a Nobel Prize winner. The Econ alumni (on the department’s webpage) seem to be doing everything: finance and i-banking, getting PHDs and teaching, going to business, law, and public policy grad schools, and I noticed more than one had become doctors! Did you watch the video about the student experience in the department?</p>
