The BS-Physics minor in Finance is an 11-term undergraduate program in physics, that provides students with
a full undergraduate physics program;
the essential mathematical preparations required for the study of complex systems;
an introduction to the fundamental concepts and ideas in either finance.
It is hoped that with this curriculum, graduates of the program will have
the quantitative analytical skills characteristic of a good graduate of a BS-Physics program;
sufficient mathematical sophistication to deal with complex systems;
enough background in finance to understand the subject of his/her study.
Graduates of the program will hopefully find placements in financial institutions where they can offer a unique set of skills and offer fresh perspectives to the fields, thus opening an opportunity to contribute to a fuller understanding of the complex phenomena of finance.
