Alright folks.  Its that time again.  The Economics Association is headed to the Fed!  The FED trip is one our biggest events so you are not going to want to miss this.  Were going to pile into the vans and head down to the San Francisco Federal Reserve Bank.  

The tour is on Tuesday April 16th.  The plan is to meet on campus(at the flagpoles near the main entrance). We will be leaving at 9:45AM and heading down to Larkspur. From there we will catch the ferry into the city. The tour is at 1:30PM and runs for about an hour and a half.  Afterwords we will be going out to get some food and drinks.

The tour and transportation to the ferry is free but bring at least $20 for the ferry.  You may also want to bring a few extra bucks for food and drinks as well.

Seats are limited so please let us know ASAP.  Click here to sign up.

Financial Analyst Job Opportunity

posted Nov 6, 2012, 10:56 AM by Unknown user

A local company is looking for an early career financial analyst just out of an MBA or Bachelor's degree. They need someone "wide-eyed" and eager to learn. For them, the most important piece is software skills(maybe someone with a statistics, math or actuarial background or project work in school). This is a GREAT company - tremendous opportunity!
