Finance Major (BA)

Undergraduate Program On Campus

What You'll Learn

If you ask Calvin finance majors why they love studying finance here, here’s what they’ll say: the professors. Faculty in the Calvin School of Business have connections on Wall Street, at Fortune 500 companies, and with local entrepreneurs. They’ll connect you to real, thriving businesses and challenge you to get to work.

Collaborate with inquisitive peers as you dive into a local business’s annual report. Get the internship of your dreams when your prof makes a call on your behalf. Develop your leadership and investing skills in the Knight Investment Management student organization. Be captivated by a Christian vision for business—you’ll find it in every class.

What Makes This Program Great
