    “Thank you to the Department of Economics faculty for everything that you did to help me have not one but two papers of mine published, and for all of the mentorship and opportunities given to me while I was at IUP. I am so glad that I decided to pick up an economics degree after taking International Trade my junior year. It was definitely one of the best decisions I made while at IUP!”
