Finance

Finance is the management of money and it is at the core of business around the globe. Finance majors study the framework and theories of financial markets and are prepared to become Wall Street insiders, launch their own companies, and build wealth for people and communities worldwide.

Kean finance majors benefit from the University's proximity to the financial capital of the world — New York City — which provides opportunities for internships, mentoring, and learning experiences outside the classroom.

Our program continuously evolves to align with industry standards, best practices and the latest technology, preparing finance graduates to begin their business careers or pursue a master's degree.
