Many of our graduates earn the Chartered Financial Analyst® (CFA) designation—a mark of distinction that sets them apart in the workplace. That’s because our BSBA in Finance incorporates at least 70 percent of the CFA Program Candidate Body of Knowledge and emphasizes the CFA Institute Code of Ethics and Standards of Practice. As a result, the program has been accepted into the CFA Institute University Recognition Program.
