Program description
The McCoy College of Business's bachelor of business administration in finance program seeks to develop students' comprehension of both domestic and international finance in order to prepare them to be outstanding leaders in business and finance.
In addition to other essential skills, students enrolled in the BBA in finance degree will have the chance to gain theoretical and practical understanding of the field's many facets, such as financial management, information technology, investment analysis, financial planning, and budgeting. Determining the financial success of the company or the individual depends on learning how to make financing and investment decisions correctly. Furthermore, given our highly interconnected system of capital markets, it is essential to understand the underlying risk of these choices and to know how to effectively hedge against uncertainty.
Graduates of the finance bachelor's program in business administration are well-suited for positions in banking, business, and other establishments where their knowledge is needed. Many students go on to work as cash managers, comptrollers, financial managers, budget analysts, or in bank management and administration.
