UConn Today – When it comes to financial literacy, many Americans struggle with basic concepts – and the lack of knowledge is particularly acute among young adults.
Vishal Baloria is an associate professor of accounting in the UConn School of Business. He teaches “Business 2235: Personal Financial Literacy,” a “life-ready” course he designed in 2023 to ease students’ stress around managing money, with the objective of having a positive effect on how students make future financial decisions.
