It only seemed suitable that a former student would help with the making of the site. Jonathan Pinder graduated from Cambridge University with a degree in economics. Over the summer of 2008 he spent a lot of time writing and collaborating information that is useful and necessary for students of economics to know and, as a result, this website was formed for you to use.
In keeping with the student viewpoint the Economics Network have a Student Placement. Miriam Best was their first student placement and worked with the Network for a year. She has now graduated with a degree in Economics and International Relations from the University of the West of England.
Eoghan Beamish was one of our Economics Network 2011/12 placement students, doing a degree in Economics and Management at the University of Bristol. He worked on both Why Study Economics and Studying Economics websites.
Richard Wood Power was another one of our Economics Network 2011/12 placement students, doing an MSc. in Economics and Finance at the Univerity of Bristol. He worked on both Why Study Economics and Studying Economics websites.
