This fall, students at the UConn-Stamford campus will be able to choose a new major designed to fit the needs of the business base in Fairfield County. Graduating its first class in 2017, the BS in Financial Management has been developed to provide students with the skills they need for successful careers in corporate financial management and analysis, investments, and portfolio management.

The curriculum includes the same general education requirements and business core requirements as other UConn business majors, though differs in that financial management majors will also complete electives in which they will learn about issues ranging from mergers and acquisitions to investment strategies, portfolio management and business ethics. The plan of study aims to ready students for the Level 1 Chartered Financial Analyst (CFA) exam.
