Are there certain electives, concentrations, or minors that you should consider taking because they would provide you with additional knowledge, skills and experiences for your field of interest? If so, add them into your above planning. If you cannot fit them into your degree and graduate by your targeted goal date, would you consider staying for an additional semester? Consult with your Academic Advisor to make sure you correctly are interpreting your degree information.
As an economic major student, I already choose management as my minor and finance as my concentration. In order to graduate on time, I would not add other concentration.
What certification programs and professional association would be important for you to obtain and join to enhance your professionalism?
The economic and management related association would be important to me to enhance my professionalism, such as the economic club and other management related lectures.
To advance in your field, will you need to obtain an advanced degree and when would be the best time to pursue that (directly after earning your undergraduate degree or after you gain professional experience in your field)?
I would like to enroll into the graduate program of economics directly after earning my undergraduate degree.
