UW Economics Alumni Organization
The UW Economics Alumni Organization (UWEAO) was accepted as a chartered club with the UW Alumni Association in June 2005. Our aim is to connect alumni to the UW Economics Department and to each other; to provide meaningful opportunities for involvement, to develop strong community awareness; and, to facilitate the exchange of economic ideas.
We are about fostering a community within and beyond the Department of Economics.
The UWEAO endeavors to provide stimulating lectures of economic content for alumni, students and faculty as well as productive networking events for current students and alumni. We partner with the Economics Undergraduate Board (EUB), the Alumni Association (UWAA), and the Economics department and its research centers in a variety activities including an Economics Mentorship Program, an Internship Program, and career seminars.
One of our most popular events is the annual Nobel Prize in Economics Lecture, presented jointly by the UWEAO and the UW Alumni Association. This annual lecture discusses the previous year's winner(s) of the Prize and the implications of their work on the global community. This year's lecture will be held on Thursday, April 24, 2008 in Kane Hall on the UW Seattle campus.
