Finance BBA
Finance and business go hand in hand. No company can function without at least one skilled finance expert onboard. That’s why the Northwood University Finance program includes a mix of finance and business management courses.
Finance majors start in their major on day one, learning all the details of the competitive world of finance, from an entrepreneurial point of view.
At Northwood University, you’ll understand more than just what makes a bottom line. You’ll leave with a distinct business savvy from hands-on learning in, and out, of the classroom. We prepare you for a successful career in financial services. And, you’ll graduate ready to take the Series 7 and CFP exams.
Fast track your education through our four-year BBA/MBA program that allows you to finish your undergraduate and graduate degree sooner. Get a head start on your career.
