Fixed Income Class

Students have the unique opportunity to participate in a fixed income trading and analysis program taught by one of our esteemed faculty who has over ten years of fixed income derivatives trading and research experience on Wall Street.  The course is designed to facilitate a real-time trading and research environment where participants gain hands-on experience working with a real fund.

Finance Consulting Projects

By combining curricular and experiential components, this consulting course allows students to work in small teams to tackle real-world strategic challenges under the guidance of executive in residence Kent Cannon. Recent consulting projects have included an international logistics analysis for KURU Footwear, a sustainability analysis for the city of Saratoga Springs, and a lease industry analysis for EquityMetrix Gas and Oil.

The class is held over one semester and meets weekly to review strategy and progress under Mr. Cannon’s expertise. In addition to using tools for financial analysis, consulting projects develop critical skills such as project planning, strategic analysis, professionalism, communication skills and working in teams.
