Program Description

Every business, organization and government agency, and for that matter, every individual raises money and decides how to spend or invest it. Whether they realize it or not, they all use finance as part of their everyday activities. A degree in Finance or Financial Services from the Raj Soin College of Business will put you in demand in a world where money and markets matter.

The Financial Services major focuses on all aspects of personal financial management including insurance, investments, real estate, taxes, estate planning, retirement planning, education funding, and debt management. The program is registered with the IBCFP (International Board of Standards and Practices for Certified Financial Planners) and graduates are eligible to sit for the Certified Financial Planner examination.
