In addition to the various economic symposiums and events that provide insights into market trends, investment strategies, and economic outlooks, there are also student-led organizations that aim to promote economic education and networking opportunities.
The UMass Lowell Economic Society is one such organization that focuses on teaching people about economics and facilitating conversations about the subject. The club covers a wide range of economic topics and welcomes individuals with varying levels of knowledge on the subject. They make their meetings open to everyone, ensuring that even those with limited knowledge of economics can participate [814ead74].

This initiative helps students gain practical experience in the field of economics and establish valuable connections within the industry. Valeria Santos Rocca, the president of the club, has successfully led the organization since September, organizing several productive club meetings [814ead74].
