Gerald D. Gay, Chair, 404-413-7321

The Department of Finance encourages all students pursuing a finance concentration to take MBA 8135 early in their program since it is a prerequisite for all electives that count toward a finance concentration. Beyond MBA 8135, to complete a concentration, students must take FI 8000 (3 hrs) plus 9 additional semester hours of 8000-level finance courses (FI-prefix). FI 8070 - Leading the Finance Function, may be taken as a free elective but does not count toward a finance concentration.

Concentration Requirements

Dual Concentration Option:

Students who complete the following set of courses as part of their MBA program will qualify for dual concentrations both in the area of finance and in risk management and insurance:

Study Abroad Elective

Students taking IB 8410 - Study Abroad: Analysis of Regional International Business Practices  (3hrs) or FI 8410 - Financial and Managerial Decisions: A Study Abroad Experience  (3 hrs) may count either course toward a concentration in finance.
