Undergraduate Economics at BU

<p>How good is the undergraduate economics department at BU? Does it have good job placement in terms of investment banking and other related careers? I know it is ranked 25th by US News for its graduate program, but how would that compare to the undergraduate program?</p>

<p>bump, i’m curious about this too.</p>

<p>bump…</p>

<p>I’m curious too. I plan to major in economics, but if BU’s program isn’t that good, I’ll have to look elsewhere.</p>

<p>It’s a large major so it has to be reasonably good.</p>

<p>yes, one of the top 5 at BU. I believe one of the econ professors just won a Nobel Prize?</p>

<p>That was chemistry. Osamu Shimomura just won for cellular research - on jellyfish.</p>

<p>touche. jellyfish, supply and demand…I get confused.</p>
