Scarcity of resources
leads to evolution of economics as a separate discipline. Lace of
good educational institutes to cater to needs of undergraduates in
Economics forced the evolution of Hans Raj College's Economics
Department as finest and one of its own kinds. Economic Department
develops the students not only as a Budding Economist but also
grooms their overall personality by regular interactions among
faculty and students. In turn these interaction develop into
lifelong bond.
The Department also has a
vibrant Economics Society that promotes students' interests in the
subject by organizing activities with their enthusiastic
involvement. The Society bring out an annual economics journal, "Okonomos"
to which students contribute and share their skills. Throughout the
year council has organised seminars on studying aboard and on
economics related topics. One such guest lecture was held in January
2011 when Dr. Ashwini Deshpande of the Delhi School of Economics
enlightened the students about the economics of discrimination. This
was followed by a felicitation ceremony for the economics council
2009-10.
The Department organised
the annual economics festival, 'Ecollouium', on 11th and 12 the
March 2011. This year's festival included various events namely
general quiz, mock stock, model United Nation, parliamentary debate,
product designing and ad-lib. Two new events, IPL Budding and the

events such as Euclid charade, click graffiti and treasure hunt. The
chief guest for the festival was Mr. Mihir Makand, country need

for the study of Economics at the undergraduate level.It comprises a
young and dynamic faculty with diverse specialization /
interest. Faculty here contributes not only by providing their
