What do Econ majors do after graduation?

Some majors go directly to grad programs — primarily in Law or Finance — but most go to work. The largest employer of Econ grads is the financial-services industry — including Wall Street, mutual-fund companies, accounting firms, and so on. But Economics provides good preparation for a wide variety of careers beyond financial services, with recent grads going into purchasing, marketing, operations management, government service, journalism, and lots of other fields. Others work for a few years, then complete an MBA program. Among majors within the Arts College, Economics is one of the best, jobwise — in terms of your chances of finding career-track employment and in terms of starting pay. See Placement.
