ECON 491(F)-W30 or ECON W30-492(S) Honors Seminar

This course is a research seminar for candidates for honors in economics. Each candidate prepares an honors thesis. Candidates will meet as a group to discuss problems common to all of them (such as empirical methods, data sources, and theoretical approaches) and each one will report on his/her work at various stages for criticism by the group as a whole. Some work is required during the preceding semester.
Prerequisites: admission by the department. Required for honors in Economics unless a student writes a year-long thesis.
