If you have a strong background in finance or accounting (either through an undergraduate degree in finance or accounting or with five years experience in a finance related job) then this program is designed for you. Students in this program complete an intensive twelve-month program that starts in July. The thirty-six hour program includes courses in macro-economics, micro-economics, law and ethics, and eight finance courses that provide graduates with a thorough understanding of material in the CFA (Chartered Financial Analysts) Candidate Body of Knowledge.
