Finance Undergraduate Program
Finance is the study of
resource allocation, that is,
the process, markets,
institutions, and instruments
that facilitate the transfer of
money and wealth. This program
offers students an opportunity
to study the finance function
in the business firm, the
financial services firm and the
financial system.
The Finance major provides
students with the theoretical
framework and analytical tools
and techniques to handle a
variety of finance and business
functions. The program is
designed to prepare a student
for financial positions with
non-financial corporations, the
financial services industry,
energy companies, small
businesses, and real estate
firms.
Finance majors may choose one of six tracks. Track
selection varies by catalog and each student is admitted to The
University under a specific catalog (Ex: 2004-2006 catalog or
2006-2008 catalog). Scroll down to view current track
options available under each catalog.
Additionally, Finance majors
can specialize further by
applying for the Financial
Analysts Program (FAP). This
year and a half long program
provides an opportunity for a
select group of outstanding
business students to work
closely with finance faculty
and industry professionals to
develop their skills and
experience as analysts.
Students are offered intensive,
“hands-on” experience in
applying the concepts of
business analysis and valuation
to decision contexts similar to
those in the business world.
This program may be combined
with any of the finance
options. For more information
