Economics Virtual Offer Holders' Day

Since we cannot yet meet our offer holders in person, we have created this webpage, where you can meet Undergraduate Programme Director, Dimitra Petropoulou, your Undergraduate Tutor, Kasia Krajniewska, attend a lecture with Professor Ronny Razin and take a look at the Department's events, research outputs and societies.

There will also be opportunities for us to meet virtually through Zoom over the next few weeks. And of course we very much look forward to meeting you all in person and welcoming you to the Department!

Please post questions on our dedicated Economics Offer Holders’ Padlet.

You can upvote questions you would like to hear the answer to ahead of our forthcoming Zoom sessions (information below). This will allow us to prioritise what we discuss in Zoom. Any questions we do not get to in Zoom, will be answered on Padlet.

In addition to Padlet, you will also be able to ask questions live on Zoom. Looking forward to meeting you!
