Get Involved
The Business and Economics Department at Wheaton offers you the opportunity to be involved at many different levels.
Internships
Students in either the Economics or the Business/Economics major may earn academic credit for work experience. Students may earn between 1 and 4 hours of academic credit; each hour of credit means 40 hours of work with the internship organization. Check out the Internship FAQs
Mentoring
As part of Dr. Min-Dong Paul Lee’s Principles of Management course, students seek out a mentor, and then blog about what they learn. Hear from Business Economics students about the value of mentoring
Study Abroad
Wheaton College offers a variety of study abroad opportunities, including the FPE Abroad international study program, which allows students to earn eight credit hours in business and economics and/or international relations courses while studying the interaction of political and economic policy, the effects of globalization on human flourishing, and the economic well being of countries.
