FINANCE 101

In the constantly-changing world of finance, you always need to stay one step ahead. Have you thought about what kind of disruption the finance industry could face in the next few years? How will artificial intelligence, machine learning, and cryptocurrency impact the way we think about finance? Have you considered shoring up knowledge gaps with education advancement?

Join us on Saturday, April 6 to learn about the practical hands-on learning that students get in the MSc Finance class by managing a $20M+ fund and applying that experience to the workplace. At this event, you will have the opportunity to connect with MSc Finance alumni and a finance career consultant.

What to expect:

You will walk away from the event with new tools to advance your career in finance in the predictably unpredictable future of business. You will get a glimpse into the SFU Beedie community and its approach to graduate business education.
