Economics 2017

Economics helps us make better decisions in our everyday life and equips us with the tools necessary to allocate our resources. Economic questions are at the heart of the well-being of any society. Hence, it is important to have an understanding of economic principles.

Throughout my undergraduate studies, I was given the opportunity to put into practice the knowledge I gained. By getting involved in different clubs and organizations, by working for the York Federation of Students, by participating in Leadershape, by competing in the Bank of Canada Governor's challenge and by going on a Global Internship in St Kitts and Nevis I was able to take full advantage of my education and reach my goals.

I would advise new students to get involved in the York community and to soak in what York's services have to offer. Academic advising and the Career Centre were crucial in planning my undergraduate studies. I would tell new students to not feel intimidated to knock on professors doors and to reach out for help. They can offer invaluable tips and advice to succeed.
