We hope you enjoy the beginning of the summer. The Economic Society met the new M1 EPP students: they are doing a summer camp with math lessons to prepare for september (not very exciting summer…). They are expecting to hear your experience about the master program and to know all your advices to enjoy the first year as much as possible !

We propose you to come at the Basile on Monday the 11th of July to share a drink with them. With summer time, it’s also the perfect opportunity for M2 students to meet a last time before leaving Paris and for M1 students to meet for those who came back from internship!

They don’t have bread? Give them wine & cheese!

Hi everyone,

First of all, congratulations for this year! You have all been through so many papers, exercises, equations and regressions that we can just applaud. And offer you a nice way to conclude this academic year.

Indeed, we have decided to leave you the choice for the day of our last party of 2010-2011!

This time, we are organizing an outdoors event. It will take place on the Pont des Arts, not so far from Sciences Po. We meet at 19h, and you stay as long as the party goes on. The format is simple: we bring you cheese, bread and other yummy stuff. You bring your own bottle.

Now the choice is yours on this Doodle http://economicsociety.us1.list-manage.com/track/click?u=fc1942b1e0e995df2da98ab88&id=8c21f6c7b6&e=6b4fe4c623 between the following Wednesdays: June 8th, 15th or 22th.

Thanks for your quick response.

Looking forward to celebrate all this together!

Eppsilon, the Economic Society magazine is finally coming out! You can find the first issue on our website. Enjoy it!

Last year, we know you have enjoyed numerous visits offered by the association. Again, we have the pleasure to announce another visit organized at the IMF-Europe Paris Office. This visit will take place on-site in the 16th arrondissement, on Thursday 31 March at 16:00 at 64-66, Avenue d’lena. You will have the opportunity to be presented the activities of the Fund, to meet some of their officials and to ask for everyting you have always wanted to know about them and their jobs.

Whether you are interested in working for the IMF, you want to know more about its relevant activities, or just curious about this institution, register now (before Monday 28) by sending an email to bureau@economicsociety.org with your contact info and the program you’re in this year (e.g. M1 EPP…)

Unfortunately, places are limited, hence you’re strongly encouraged… not to hesitate :)

This will take place from 10:30 to 13:00.

We will successively meet (take a breath):

• Magali Marx, Economiste au service de la politique monétaire
• Frederic Lambert, Chef de service, économies emergentes
• Emmanuelle Assouan, Directrice Adjointe, Operations de Marché
• Benoit Mojon, Chef de service, politique monétaire
• Pierre Jaillet, Directeur Genéral des Etudes.

We have invited Ruben Durante, assistant professor at Sciences Po and Camille Hémet, 2nd year PhD student at Sciences Po to discuss with us about PhDs in general, and in particular how to apply, how to receive a funding, etc.

We are very lucky to welcome Ruben Durante, who can talk about his PhD experience in the US (Brown University) and Camille Hémet, who can also answer to questions about Sciences Po and Ile-de-France scolarships.

We have reserved the cosy basement of the bar - that some of you may remember from last year - and negotiated special prices (sangria and wine at 3€, pint of beer at 5€, shots for 2€50 ; cheap tapas as well if still hungry after the cocktail).

A good opportunity to get to know each other, current and former students.
