Alumni Career Journeys - Focus on Further Studies (Part 1) Building Your Career without Connections (Part 2)

The Department of Economics is excited to host the final event in our Careers in Economics series for the academic year: Alumni Career Journeys - Focus on Further Studies and Building your Career without Connections.

This event will feature a diverse panel of Warwick Economics alumni, current students and staff who will share their insights on further study programmes and career opportunities & challenges. Following the panel introductions, attendees will have the chance to network with the panellists, ask questions about their experiences and seek valuable advice.
