Current Events

Structured job/internship search

 We have set up a process with the Co-sponsorship of Career Services so that over time, we have will have walked through the steps needed to land a job/internship. We are breaking the daunting task of finding a job or internship in to manageable bites, while covering as much ground as possible, in as short a time as possible, so that all of us will hopefully have a job/internship by next summer.

  • International Finance (FI425)
  • Data Analysis (FI450)
  • Portfolio Management (FI330) 

We are offering three graduate classes this winter:
