BACHELOR OF SCIENCE (B.S.) Finance

McNeese’s finance degree is housed in the College of Business. The College is among just 5% of business schools in the world to be accredited by the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business International. Through education and training in the acquisition and use of funds, you will develop the skills and knowledge needed for a successful career in finance, including analytical, quantitative, accounting, and writing skills, as well as digital technology and software skills. As a finance major, you will explore advanced topics in insurance and risk management, economics, information systems, international business, and more. The program curriculum also makes it easy to earn a dual degree in accounting in the same amount of time it takes to complete one program.
