Wake Forest has a chapter of Omicron Delta Epsilon, the international honor society in economics. Each year we invite our most accomplished majors to join ODE at the local chapter’s induction.

HISTORY OF OΔE

Omicron Delta Gamma was founded in 1915 by John Commons, University of Wisconsin, and Frank Taussig, Harvard University, through the union of the economics societies of their universities.

Omicron Delta Epsilon has 578 chapters in the United States, Canada, Australia, the United Kingdom, Mexico, Puerto Rico, South Africa, Egypt, France, and the United Arab Emirates.  It was formed by the merger in 1963 of Omicron Delta Gamma and Omicron Chi Epsilon

The objectives of Omicron Delta Epsilon are recognition of scholastic attainment, the honoring of outstanding achievements in economics, and the establishment of closer ties between students and faculty in economics.  To apply for admission, undergraduate candidates must have completed at least four economics courses and earned an overall GPA of 3.0 and 3.0 in Economics.
