The department of finance brings together a group of scholars who are active in producing high impact research and who are dedicated to providing a high quality education to our undergraduate, masters, and doctoral students. Because our faculty is actively engaged in creating new knowledge, all of our students benefit from a curriculum that reflects current advances in knowledge.
Our education does not stop at the classroom, as we offer many opportunities for experienced-based education. For example, with our Johnson Investment Counsel Fund finance students have the opportunity to manage an investment portfolio under professional and faculty supervision. Real estate field projects, for instance, pair student teams with local firms to develop solutions for valuation, investment, and development challenges. For nearly 100 years, the department of finance along with the college has been a leader in CO-OP education, with students taking finance-related co-op jobs with local, national and global firms. Our graduates hold CEO's, Finance VP's, and other executive positions in major firms, and are successful entrepreneurs and investors.
