Understanding finance with hands-on opportunities.

Studying finance at Muhlenberg means you will be immersed in data-driven experiential learning, networking events and in-depth research opportunities. Our slate of passionate faculty who have industry experience will equip you with the quantitative and analytical skills to understand investment strategies and to make profitable, evidence-based financial decisions.

Know that your learning will take you beyond the classroom: from handling the College’s investment portfolio of more than $1 million with the Muhlenberg Investment Society to building connections and networking through the Muhlenberg Career Center or the Wall Street Club. These opportunities will open the door to internships at major corporations and firms such as JP Morgan Chase, TD Securities or Olympus.

These opportunities will blend with the dynamic, interdisciplinary liberal arts experience, providing you a perspective that will set you apart from the competition and provide a richer lens through which to view the interconnected financial sector and the financial decisions made by private investors.
