Welcome!

Welcome to the Undergraduate Peer Advising homepage for the Economics Department, here at the University of Oregon! We are economics majors that have come together in our department to provide a service to not only our fellow economics majors, but to help out any student that has a desire to learn more about economics.

Throughout the school year, we look forward to helping students with questions regarding major/minor requirements, scheduling of economics courses, and providing information on careers, internships, graduate programs, and study abroad opportunities. You can also check out issues of our quarterly newsletter, the Utility Times to learn more about the major.

We run the Undergraduate Resource Center in rooms 405 and 407 PLC, which are great places to study and also have four Pentium III computers with fast internet connections that are available to any economics majors on a first come - first serve basis. These rooms are open and staffed from 9:30 am to 4:30 pm, Monday through Friday through the academic year. Stop by and take advantage of these resources available to you! In the meantime, enjoy the information you can access through links on this page.

If you have any questions, feel free to the contact us at econpeer@darkwing.uoregon.edu
