Starting from a casual chat in the bar, our capable future economists finally turned some budding ideas into reality! Since its establishment, Warwick Economics Research Lounge has become our most frequently-held flagship programme, laying the foundation for Warwick Economics Exchange.

The Research Lounge is intended to offer students more chances to discuss current topics in economics, politics and related subjects beyond the classroom. The relaxing and encouraging atmosphere brings out the best in us. Students use this platform to present their existing and ongoing research, share exciting papers recently read and debate about various issues in the real-world economy. Fellow students raise questions, discuss, debate, and provide feedback. Participants gain academic presentation experience, benefit from constructive opinions, and get to meet other like-minded future economists.
