ECONOMICS GRADUATE STUDENT SERVICES
The Economics Student Services Mission is to advise our students holistically by providing a high standard of service in a supportive and collaborative environment. Professional and peer advisors work as a team to provide accurate information in a timely manner. We partner with faculty to assist students in engaging with the campus and the global economic community. We value fairness, diversity, and the important roles our students, faculty, and staff in the Department of Economics play at the University of California, Berkeley.
