IMPORTANT: Students might do the internship work prior to the semester when they register for the Econ 4201 Internship class. Example: students taking internships over the summer, and registering for the ECON 4201 class in the fall. Students would have to submit the assignments during the semester when they register. However, students should still check with the Data Analytics Program Director or the departmental Internship Coordinator the appropriateness of the work, and the approval form should be submitted before starting to work on a project.
