About Finance

Finance Department

The Department of Finance at the Lam Family College of Business, located minutes away from the finance district and tech hub in San Francisco, combines rigorous academic theory with practical, real-world application.

The department offers undergraduate students a Bachelor of Science in Business Administration with a Concentration in Finance. The program emphasizes the core financial decisions that drive every organization, including capital investment, financial asset acquisition, capital raising and risk management. Students also learn how to manage day-to-day financial operations and evaluate strategic decisions related to product and service offerings. Alternatively, undergraduates have the option to choose a Minor in Corporate Finance. Undergraduate students may also pursue Undergraduate Certificates in Financial Analytics, Fintech, or Real Estate. 

We offer graduate students a Master of Business Administration with an Emphasis in Finance, as well as a Graduate Certificate in Finance.
