For students interested in working in finance, especially as financial analysts in investment banking and are on the Path to Wall Street track, we offer a FI330 Junior Analyst course.

This course provides students with an introduction to the necessary tools and best practices to be a financial analyst. Key topics include reading and understanding financial statements, financial modelling, stock valuation using multiple methods, how to utilize popular financial databases, and how to prepare analyst reports, as well as how to present financial market research.

The course follows a natural progression from conceptual to applied materials and puts a heavy emphasis on the application of the valuation models through case studies and valuation exercises. Guest speakers are often invited to speak about careers in investment banking, finance industry, and valuation process.

Please note that this course counts as one of the two required finance electives for finance students.
