In this process, there are various factors believed to influence students’ decisions, including peers and career prospects. This study aims to determine the influence of peers and career prospects on the selection of concentration courses among students in the Economics Education Study Program, Class of 2023, at the University of Jambi, both partially and simultaneously.
