Math x Economics
A one-day program for juniors and seniors in high school who are exceptionally talented in the subject of mathematics. Participants learn about studying economics in college to encourage them to consider a career in economic policy and research.

Students take part in a variety of fun and interactive activities to introduce them to the field of economics, get coursework recommendations from recent graduates and hear firsthand about different career paths in economics from a panel of professional economists. Participants have a unique opportunity to meet other students, ask questions of current Bank staff and visit the New York Fed gold vault!

 
AUDIENCE
College-bound juniors and seniors from public high schools in the New York metropolitan area, with particular focus on Title I schools. This program seeks to increase the diversity of economists in the field by providing financial education to high school students from inner-city schools and girls' schools. We strongly encourage minority and women candidates to participate.
