CCE 35
Deconstructing Finance: An Introduction Winter 2025

Are you thinking of a career in Finance, but not sure what it really means? Conflicted? Have you ever talked to someone in Finance and learned from their career experience? Are you interested in developing your resume and interviewing skills? This introductory course will define the institutions that comprise the world of Finance. This will be accomplished in three units. First, we will explore the sell side from the buy side, defining the market interrelationships. This will require reading provided in a packet. Second, building on the first unit we will have panel discussions with various senior Finance professionals comprising asset management, investment banking and global markets. Third, we will develop skills in writing resume reviews and practice interviews. Students will practice as both interviewee and interviewer for specific job roles, graded for competencies and whether the results justify an offer/further interviews. Interested students should apply by October 25. Applications for all CCE Courses can be found here: https://airtable.com/appLN37taapdMaZ7V/shrzUn85G4OUycgXc
