1994 Major: Economics
"Studying economics gave me the background and essential foundation to begin my career as a securities analyst. I was able to build on my understanding of both Macro and Micro economics principles to advance my career. The knowledge I gained at Duke studying economics was also a huge help for me in passing the Chartered Financial Analyst (CFA) exams 2 decades ago when I was starting out as a Portfolio Manager."
"There are lots of different careers that can stem from a Duke Economics degree. Keep an open mind while taking a wide variety of Economics and Finance classes and hopefully you will figure out which career path journey you would like to embark on."
