Department of Economics

Careers in Economics Webinar Series 2021-22

Over the past few years we have found that students from Warwick’s Economics Department have highly valued the opportunity to meet with employers and alumni to explore the range of economics related careers.

For the 2021-22 academic year, we will be hosting a new series of webinars covering a range of topics. Below, you can see a schedule of the webinars and who we have invited to speak to you in Term 2. We hope that you take this opportunity to learn from employers about the skills that they value in economics graduates and find out more about how to apply for the positions that they offer in their companies.

If you are a Warwick student or a member of staff you have access to the recordings of the webinars. You will find links to them below but you need to be logged into your Warwick account.
