The study of finance provides a framework to address challenging questions that face individuals, organizations and the global economy. In this program, you will complement your academic work with experiential application, gaining knowledge both in the classroom and through innovative methods of hands-on learning. Not only will this enable you to make stronger connections between theoretical concepts and real-world skills, but it also gives you a chance to jumpstart your career in the competitive fields of private equity, wealth and asset management or corporate finance.
By integrating a strong core of economics courses with advanced courses in finance, you will have access to unique learning experiences, such as the advanced portfolio management class in which students participate in the actual management of a portion of the university’s endowment fund. It also provides excellent preparation for the Chartered Financial Analyst (CFA) certification exams and gives you the opportunity to earn your Bloomberg Market Concepts certification.
