What undergrad classes should I take for Treasury? Forum

[nycparalegal]

I'd like to work at the Treasury department after law school; however, I graduated with a International Politics degree and the only econ class I took was Macroeconomics 101.

Does anyone have any advice on what classes I should take before heading off to law school in a year to give myself a good foundation?

Maybe a statistics class or accounting?

It depends what you want to do at Treasury. You could look on USAjobs.gov for such jobs, look at the duties and qualifications, and then identify related coursework that interests you.

But I imagine an understanding of economics can only help. If this is true, monetary, micro and macro econ are probably the most useful
