Finance

The Schulich finance specialization is one of the most extensive in Canada, with coverage of the full spectrum of financial activities in Canadian business, including corporate financial management and investment management. Schulich graduates can also specialize in financial services and financial engineering.

Financial management topics include: capital budgeting (the investment decision); capital structure (the financing decision); working capital management; evaluation of acquisitions and divestitures; and management of foreign currency exposures. Graduates are well positioned to build careers as investment bankers, corporate financial advisors, financial managers and executives in non-financial companies.

Investment management focuses on the design, marketing and trading of financial instruments, including bonds, stocks and derivative securities. Career paths lead to positions such as financial analyst, broker, underwriter and portfolio manager.
