The Promoting Achievement and Diversity in Economics (PADE) is a year-long program that offers advising, academic support, and professional development opportunities for undergraduate students in the Department of Economics at the University of Maryland. Participants will attend weekly study sessions for economics and math classes and occasional seminars with faculty or professional economists in the DC area. PADE is designed to increase diversity in economics by supporting traditionally under-represented students who major in economics, particularly those exploring the BS degree, and those who are considering graduate study in economics or a related field.
