Academic Awards

The Economics Department gives awards to graduating seniors in economics and the BBA, as well as the Jack Barham Scholarship, which is awarded to four economics or BBA majors each year. The Department decides on departmental awards each May for students graduating in June, as well as those who graduated the previous September or February. Barham Scholarships for the following year will also be awarded at that time.
