Finance Minor (Business Students)

This minor has two options: one for Business students and one for non-Business students.

Finance encompasses both the science and the art of managing money and investments. The study of finance provides students with an understanding of numerous financial theories such as the relation between risk and return, the factors that determine asset values, and strategies for minimizing the risk exposure of both corporations and investors. An understanding of these theories helps students develop the ability to make sound and practical business and personal investment decisions.

The UCCS Finance minor curriculum trains students to think logically regarding financial problems and to formulate sound financial decisions, policies, and practices. 

College of Business undergraduate students are encouraged and can easily pursue a minor in our business specializations. All minors for business students are 9 credit hours and can be applied to business elective requirements as well as open electives (adding no additional credits or time to degree completion). Each minor allows a student to further their business knowledge and differentiate themselves from others by adding another credential to their resume.
