Student Organizations

Berkeley Economic Review is the University of California at Berkeley's premier undergraduate, peer-reviewed, academic economics journal. Founded in 2016, we are a 100% student-run and student-produced nonprofit publication. Our organization exists to provide a forum for students to voice their views on current economic issues and ultimately to foster a community of aspiring economists.

The Undergraduate Economics Association (UEA) is the oldest and largest economics club at UC Berkeley. We aim to foster the economics community on campus by providing academic, social, and professional support for undergraduates through the organization of social events, company information sessions, student and alumni panels, professional development workshops, and discussions with faculty and industry professionals.

Undergraduate Women in Economics at Berkeley is a young organization dedicated to increasing diversity and women representation, and to fostering a sense of community. Our beginning derives from the Undergraduate Women in Economics Challenge posited by Harvard Professor, Claudia Goldin, to increase the representation in Economics. We strive to do our part not only on the UC Berkeley campus but as part of this nationwide community. UWEB strives to be as inclusive as possible, meaning that not only do we accept all majors and genders, but also allow members to join at any point in the semester. Join our membership list by clicking “join” on our organization on Callink and check out our Facebook, Instagram, or website to come to one of our bi-weekly meetings!

The Behavioral Economics Association at Berkeley is a student organization dedicated to exploring the intersection of psychology and economics. We aim to understand how human behavior influences economic decision-making. Through workshops, speaker events, and research opportunities, we provide students with practical insights into behavioral economics and its applications in the real world.

Our goal is to increase representation in economics by dismantling barriers to participation in our field and confronting bias. We recognize that we operate within a discipline with a long history of systemic exclusion of students and scholars based on their race, gender, sexual orientation, or other historically oppressed identities. Making economics more inclusive will require breaking down these systems and building new ones that facilitate broader, more diverse, and more equitable scholarship.

The GEA is a student association that organizes social activities for Economics graduate students. The main events are the skit party and the "Little Big Game" versus Stanford, which is a series of competitions (soccer, touch football, frisbee, and volleyball). The GEA also organizes productivity seminars, social events throughout the year, and a welcome BBQ in the fall for all students. All Economics Graduate students are by default, members of the GEA.
