Why Choose Finance?
The study of Finance is the art and science of wealth management. Almost every firm, government agency, and corporation has financial managers who prepare financial reports, direct investment activities, and implement cash management strategies. These valued individuals are the caretakers of cash and assets that are an organization's lifeblood. Others assist individuals with personal financial planning and taxes. You can become one of these experts in this important field as a graduate of the Finance major at Western New England University.
