The undergraduate division of the Department of Finance provides a curriculum which enables all students in the College of Commerce to acquire a basic understanding of the public and private financial processes which affect all aspects of business, government, and personal investments. It provides a strong foundation for students with career goals related to corporate financial management, investment management, options and futures, banking and other financial institution administration.
The aims of the department are to provide opportunities for the development of learning abilities through instruction in basic and advanced courses; to provide a varied and flexible curriculum to expose department majors to all aspects of the finance functions and enable them to concentrate in areas of greatest individual appeal; to assist students to become aware of career opportunities for persons with a foundation in financial management; and to assist all students in the College of Commerce to see the relationships and usefulness of a basic understanding of finance for their own areas of concentration. The department also offers an honors program for students choosing to major in Finance (see section on Finance Honors Program for requirements).
