Program overview

What Auburn University at Montgomery says about their program:

An old saying goes, “Money makes the world go ‘round,” but who harnesses that money so it can fuel improvement for individuals, families, companies and nonprofit organizations?

Financial services professionals are in the business of connecting individuals, business, and organizations with resources to achieve their goals. It feels great to be the person who helps others manage money, plan for the future, and build wealth. And to be recognized for doing so, you don’t need to be a math genius or a fortune teller. What you need is a solid business education—with a strong focus on finance—that integrates classwork, group projects, professional networking, and plenty of one-on-one time with professors who’ve been successful in the real world of finance and enjoy guiding you in that direction, too.
