The Economic Tribune is the official UCL Economics Magazine. With every aspect of writing, editing and design carried out by students, it is a reflection of innovative excellence fostered by the University’s Economics Department.

Originally named the Drayton Tribune, the magazine was founded by two enthusiastic economists (Pablo Pena Corrales and Dennis Dinkelmeyer) at the end of the 2012-2013 academic year.

​Since its founding, the UCL Economic Tribune has grown into a trusted platform for rigorous, insightful research and commentary on economic trends and political events. The Tribune team is committed to providing a forum for students to discuss ideas as well as providing the wider UCL community with a window into cutting edge economic research. 

The magazine’s latest issue, Issue 36 “When Ceteris Isn’t Paribus”, is now live.

The UCL Journal of Economics is the official peer-reviewed, student-run journal of the UCL Department of Economics. In line with UCL’s philosophy of a research focused approach to education, it aims to provide a platform for undergraduate economists at UCL and worldwide to showcase their rigorous economic research, regardless of background or previous experience. 

The journal adds value to students at UCL by offering a chance to extend the research they undertake within and outside university modules. It will always be free to read and to submit papers for. It aims to maintain high standards of content, editing, and peer-review to uphold the reputation of the authors. This makes the journal an important institution for undergraduate students across the world. 

UJE publishes one issue a year, to which any undergraduate student can submit a paper for consideration. 

The journal is now open to submissions for Volume V (September 2026).
