Congratulations to Nandini Das and Sudipta Sarangi on this great work! @VT_Econ @VT_Science news.vt.edu/content/news_v…
VT Econ PhD graduate Nandini Das found that giving farmers more information can actually backfire. Her research helped redesign a training program that cut pesticide use by up to 50%. That's the kind of work that matters! Full story: news.vt.edu/content/news_v…
Dozens of our alumni and friends gathered in Arlington for our annual Alumni & Friends Happy Hour. It was a wonderful evening of reconnecting, catching up, and sharing all the exciting things happening in Blacksburg. We can't wait to do it again next year! 📸: Brian Hollar
Adilynn Walker is an Economics grad and a newly commissioned officer in the @USNavy on her way to becoming a Surface Warfare Officer. Our Chair's Excellence Award couldn't go to a more deserving Hokie. Congratulations, Adilynn, and thank you for your service.
The Chair's Excellence Award goes to Pascale Kuo. She currently works for the @RichmondFed, but while on campus, she was President of the Econ Club, an Econ Games competitor, an undergrad researcher, a peer mentor, and so much more. Congratulations, Pascale!
Nick Fleischman completed his Economics degree in three years, is spending this summer interning at the Richmond Fed, and will return this fall to complete his Accelerated MA. Some Hokies don't slow down. Congrats, Nick!
Meet Sophia DellaPenna. Economics grad, two-time Mastercard intern, teaching assistant, tutor, researcher, intern with @hokiesports, and @VT_Science Ambassador. What a resume! Congrats, Sophia!
Three years of high-level involvement, experiential learning, and academic excellence. That's what earned Hannah Banks and Katrina Dant our Outstanding Junior Awards. Congrats to you both!
Congrats to Fredric Reese and Caroline Williamson, our Outstanding Sophomore Award winners. Two years in and already thinking big! Fredric is headed toward financial markets and policy. Caroline is planning to pursue her master's, either at Virginia Tech or somewhere abroad.
Congrats to Baylin Fidler and Abigail Lee, our Outstanding First Year Student Award winners. They've only had one year on campus, and they've already made an impact! We can't wait to see what's next for these two. 🎓
The Econ Club at Virginia Tech just launched its inaugural Professor of the Year Award. Richard Cothren has been selected as their first honoree for his enthusiasm and dedication to teaching Macro Theory. Congratulations, Professor Cothren! 🎉
The results are in, and these are the instructors who stood out this year. Congrats to all of our teaching award winners for making VT Econ such a special place to learn.
