Annual Chicago Trip

The Economics Student Association organizes a trip to Chicago every fall semester. This trip is for sophomores, juniors, and seniors who are declared economics majors (or a related major such as finance or investment banking) to learn about summer internship opportunities and post graduation job opportunities at a variety of firms. Over a two day trip, the group spends a day visiting four firms in the following fields: consulting, economic research, investment banking, accounting, asset management, and trading. Applications for this trip are available in early September.
