Tutorial
and Research Options in Economics
The Economics Department offers a number of
senior economics students teaching assistant positions. Tutorials
significantly benefit both our senior and first year students.
They provide a unique opportunity for senior students to get
experience in the classroom. This increases self-confidence,
improves communication skills, develops interpersonal problem
solving skills, and consolidates their knowledge of economics.
The system also benefits large numbers of first
year students who receive extra hours of instruction with
our best senior economics students in small interactive class
sessions.
Moreover, because they are led by a senior student
they offer another type of environment for students to ask
questions and to play a more active role in their own learning
experience.
