Finance Minor

The Finance minor is designed to prepare students for careers in investment services, banking, and corporate finance. The curriculum in the minor, when combined with a degree in Business Administration, Accounting, or Economics provides most of the content needed for the CFA Level One exam. In addition to the Finance coursework, students can get involved with the Student Managed Investment Fund and obtain invaluable hands-on experience guided by professionals and the opportunity to earn additional academic credit.

Open to Business Administration, Accounting, and Economics majors only. Students applying for the Finance minor must have been admitted to the School of Business.
