"A huge thing I learned from all of my courses was data analysis. How to be given a ton of data -- what do you do with it? How do you extract it? And how do you make business decisions?

Prep for the future by joining a professional club or organization. A valuable, rare opportunity for our undergraduates is investing a substantial amount of money through the Student Managed Investment Fund (SMIF). You will research companies through equity analysis, then invest real money in the stock market based on that research. Active members of SMIF earn course credit.
As a Finance student you can attend a seminar series featuring distinguished leaders in different financial concentrations. You'll get to hear about the latest research and news in the world of finance.
As a Krannert student you have a lot of opportunities to learn in a global setting. From Australia to France to Germany, you will gain experiences that can't be fully captured in the classroom. There is a program that is perfect for everyone, no matter if it's for a few weeks or a whole semester.
