Finance is a discipline focused on the creation and management of money. To be exact, it studies how an individual, firm, or government acquires money and spends money. Finance works in many areas, including asset pricing, financial markets, financial institutions, risk management, and corporate finance. The finance major will develop students’ skills in determining asset values, preparing corporate budgets, choosing optimal financial structures, managing risk, and making financial decisions such as dividend policies, mergers and acquisitions, and working capital management.

4+1 Program

The 4+1 program provides our undergraduate students the opportunity to earn two degrees in one stop. Couple your undergraduate degree with any one of our four business master's degrees. You'll begin taking graduate-level courses in your senior year to help you transit into a full, final year of graduate studies. Internships An internship is an opportunity to apply theory to practice. It's a chance to gain perspectives on what you learn in the classroom and to do some self-reflection. You’ll get to "try a job on" and find out if it's right for you before you cross the graduation stage. Moravian students have interned at Morgan Stanley, Crayola, PPL Electric Utilities, Boys and Girls Club of Bethlehem, and more!
