Management of these funds is in the hands of the MBA Investment Club, with advice from their faculty moderator. These funds allow the students to benefit from the responsibility of actual decision-making with real dollars. Annual reports are submitted to the dean and to the University's investment officer of the status of these funds. The primary goal of the Notre Dame Accounting Association is to encourage student involvement in planning activities of interest to students in accountancy. NDAA organizes workshops and tutoring sessions, sponsors lectures and seminars, provides information on career opportunities and organizes social functions.
Membership is open to all junior and senior students in accountancy.
Interested sophomore students may attend many of the meetings and events. The club strives to foster entrepreneurial drive by pooling the talents and ambitions of like-minded students of every major with those of established business leaders nationwide. It sponsors a lecture series, trips to business centers and seminars. In addition, the club runs a business plan contest that challenges members to innovate their own new and exciting business opportunities. The club also organizes student advisory boards which enable members to counsel local small business organizations.
