Committees

• Academics Committee
  People say that when you conduct tutorials, hold symposia, organize quiz contests and review classes, invite guest speakers to indulge in topic of national concern, you have to be a nerd.
  At the Academics Committee, we beg to disagree. Because we not only make school a little easy, we also make it a little more fun. It's not that all academic.
• Human Resource Development (HRD) Committee
  HRD Committee formerly known as Membership Committee aims to promote camaraderie and active participation among members of the organization. It is very visible in all of the organization's activities and is in-charge of monitoring the involvement of its members and its training and development programs.
• Special Projects Committee
  Fund-raising projects would fall under this committee. All projects lined up all year round gear towards finances to fund other undertakings of the organization. This would also mean doing exciting projects, meeting a lot of people and having a lot of fun. This is a committee where "action" never ceases. Get into action, be part of SPC.
• External Committee
  ECONORG, being an active member of the JPES (Junior Philippine Economics Society) an association of economics organizations from different colleges and universities is currently the Vice-president for Academics this school year.
  Aside from being a committee for dedicated, responsible yet fun-loving people, the External Committee is the committee tasked to participate in various activities of JPES. At the same time, this committee also serves as a ling with the business sector since JPES is the junior arm of the Philippine Economics Society which is comprised mostly of professionals.
