Bachelor of Science [B.S] [Finance] From University of Notre Dame

The programs of study leading to a degree, with a major in finance, are based on the conviction that successful administration in business demands an understanding of the operation of the individual firm and the environment in which it must function, as well as a command of the analytical tools essential to decision making. Thus, students selecting a major in the department are required to become knowledgeable in four distinct, but interrelated areas of study:

• Analytical tools, including computers, spread sheet software, statistics, and economics
• Functional area knowledge of the business firm, including Accounting, Finance, Management and Marketing
• Environmental issues, including an examination of both the legal and economic frameworks that condition business decisions and actions
• Technical skills in the specific functional area chosen as a concentration in Finance
