BS in Business Administration - Financial Management

University of Colorado - Denver

The Financial Management Major provides students with the skills needed to succeed in financial management careers. The business community has affirmed that students need skills in both the accounting and finance areas. The financial management specialty incorporates knowledge of corporate financial management, financial institutions and markets, investments, financial accounting and managerial accounting, accounting information systems, and information technology. Career opportunities include corporate financial management, finance/accounting positions with financial institutions, and accounting positions that are not CPA-track. The major provides a solid finance and accounting background for other business positions as well. Please note that all finance, risk, and accounting courses are not offered every semester. Students should take the ACCT 2200 Financial Accounting and Financial Statement Analysis and ACCT 2220 Managerial Accounting and Professional Issues courses as soon as possible to avoid future problems in their schedules, since these are prerequisites for all courses in the specialization.
