The Study of Finance Finance is the area in business that focuses on the financial decisions of managers and investors and the implementation of these decisions. We also study the environment in which financial decisions are made and implemented, including the requirements of law and ethics. We do more than study the existing practice of finance - we look for ways to improve the practice and teach these improvements to our students. Finance interfaces with all other business disciplines - accounting, marketing, strategic management and operations management. An understanding of finance is crucial for anyone interested in business.
Finance is a continuously evolving field.
The use of the internet, smart cards and cyber cash indicates that innovation will continue to be central to finance. Finance is a global field. Capital today knows no borders and the amounts of capital that move from country to country are astounding. This globalization of finance will continue to intensify, providing many opportunities for managers and investors who have the expertise to take advantage of them. The Finance department offers a Bachelor of Science in Commerce in Finance and a Master of Business Administration with a finance concentration.
