Student Opportunities

Omicron Delta Epsilon (ODE)

Omicron Delta Epsilon (ODE), the International Honors Society in economics, is the world's largest economics undergraduate honorary society. Membership in the society is the highest international recognition a student of economics can receive in an undergraduate program. 

To be invited, students must achieve a 3.0 GPA in their economics courses and have over a 3.0 GPA overall. You do not need to be an economics major to be invited. There is a one-time life membership fee of $30, which covers the membership scroll, a membership card and a one-year subscription to The American Economist, the economics journal of ODE.  No one shall be denied membership because of sex, race, color, creed, or national origin.

For more information please contact the faculty advisor: Dr. Stumph.
