Professionalism in Applied Economics Society is a UMass student-run organization for current and prospective Managerial Economics and Environmental & Natural Resource Economics (ENRE) majors. Our goal is to facilitate academic and professional development while providing a welcoming and supportive community that helps connect students in the department. By hosting a variety of events ranging from professional development seminars and guest speakers to networking opportunities and social events, we prepare and expose our members to opportunities that go beyond the classroom. If you are interested in getting involved in PAES, send us an email or follow us on Instagram @umasspaes to keep up to date with our meetings and events. PAES is open to anyone with an interest in applied economics and a desire to improve their soft and hard skills. New members are always welcome!”
