<p>This is sorta weird I think.</p>
<p>My school is offering three programs in the Finance major:</p>
<p>Corporate Finance (15 hours)</p>
<p>Investments (15 hours)</p>
<p>Financial Services (18 hours)</p>
<p>I am not really quite sure what all this means. Can someone tell me what the difference is between these 3 programs within the Finance Major, and what kind of jobs we can qualify for?</p>
<p>bump........</p>
<p>I'm almost certain you would be better off sending an e-mail to the academic adviser in the finance department at your school.</p>
<p>If your school website doesn't give any clear descriptions of these programs, then THAT'S weird.</p>
<p>nope, the school website doesn't have a clear description of each program. The closest descriptions I can get are by looking up the classes in the class guidebook for each program.</p>
<p>Some of the classes in each program:</p>
<p>Corporate Finance:
-corporate financial analysis
-Case studies in Corporate Finance
-Investment Analysis and Portfolio Managment
-Financial statement analysis and portfolio managment
-corporate risk managment
-commercial bank practice and policy</p>
<p>Investments-
-corporate financial analysis
-investment analysis and portfolio managment
-financial statement analysis
-derivative securities
-fixed income securities</p>
<p>Financial Services
-financial institutions
-investment analysis and portfolio managment
-managament of risk and insurance
-intro to real estate and urban development
-commericial bank practice and policy
-corporate financial analysis
-real estate market analysis
-life insurance
-corporate risk managment
-case studies in corporate finance</p>
<p>these are just some courses offered in each program, right now, corporate finance program seems much more appealing that or financial services.</p>
<p>Financial services seems to be a little bit of corporate finance and investments.</p>
<p>Corporate finance sounds the most general (read: useful for getting a job). Whether this is the case or not, I don't know - talk to your counselor.</p>
<p>What school do you go to?</p>
<p>It looks like some courses overlap anyway.</p>
