Stevenson University

Programme overview

This undergraduate finance programme builds core skills in financial theory, quantitative analysis, and ethical decision‑making. Coursework balances accounting literacy, investment principles, risk management and the use of spreadsheets and financial databases so graduates can evaluate business decisions and investment opportunities.

What you'll study

Study combines classroom learning and practical exercises. Typical topics include financial statement analysis, corporate finance fundamentals, investments and portfolio theory, risk and insurance, and financial markets. Applied components often use case studies, modeling in spreadsheets and simulation of trading or valuation scenarios.

Entry requirements

Admissions typically require a high school diploma or equivalent and submission of transcripts; mathematics competency is important given quantitative coursework. Programs may consider placement testing or recommend preparatory coursework in algebra, precalculus or introductory statistics for students without recent math background.

Career prospects

Graduates are prepared for entry‑level roles in corporate finance, financial analysis, investment services, commercial banking, wealth management and insurance. With experience or professional credentials (CFA, CFP, etc.), graduates can advance to senior analyst, portfolio manager, finance manager or other leadership positions.

Scholarships & funding angle

Students should explore university scholarships, merit awards, need‑based aid and external finance‑focused scholarships from industry associations and foundations. Paid internships and cooperative education placements are valuable both for funding and for building employer connections that improve job prospects after graduation.
