Mentoring

We are pleased to offer academic mentoring specifically for Economics students, focusing on academic enrichment and career planning. Professor Alfonso Rodriguez will provide guidance on understanding Economics course descriptions, preparing for graduate school, and exploring career options in fields such as economics, finance, and policy. Whether you're planning for advanced studies or exploring career opportunities, this mentoring service will support your long-term goals.

Please note, this service is distinct from the role of academic advisors, as it does not cover course mapping for graduation, course requirements, or prerequisites for specific classes. For those needs, please consult with your academic advisor.
