What is the difference between a Bachelor of science in finance and a bachelor of business administration in?

Question by Originalchick: What is the difference between a Bachelor of science in finance and a bachelor of business administration in?

-finance.
What is the difference between a Bachelor of science in finance and a bachelor of business administration in finance?

And what career path those it lead to?

Best answer:

Answer by Cochise
A BBA is more general – you get some finance, some accounting, some management, some business law, etc. A BS-Finance would be more pointed.

I recommend that you go for the BBA and if you are really interested in finance, go for an MBA afterwords. A BS finance really doesn’t carry much weight these days – you will need an MBA eventually anyway.

If you do go after either of these degrees, by all means take at least one tax course [not the same as accounting] and one “managerial accounting” [aka "budgeting"] course. They were the two most useful courses I have ever taken.

As for career paths, these both lead to careers in business. Again, the BBA can take you almost anywhere. The BS-Finance more or less sends you to the local stockbroker or bank.

What is the difference between corporate and quantitative finance? what jobs can you get?

Question by shootthemessenger: What is the difference between corporate and quantitative finance? what jobs can you get?

Hi, i plan to study Bachelor of Finance at Australian National University, however i have to choose to major in either of “corporate finance and investment management” or “quantitative finance”. From what i udnerstand, corporate finance is more theoritical and has to do with business financing while quantitative finance has to do with math. could someone tell me more about both subjects? what kind of job can you get after studying each of these?

FYI I have a very strong mathematical background but i dont like computer programing. I did very well (not bragging) in all the other subjects in highschool as well. I do have interest in math but i want to study somehting that would help me secure a gd job. what do you suggest?

Best answer:

Answer by James E
I’ve been a finance student for some time, let’s see if I can help you.

Quantitative Finance is more math related than Corporate finance. I don’t know if ‘majors’ are the same in Australia as they are here but, when I read about quantitative finance programs in America they are usually Financial Engineering programs. Graduates from these programs tend to take jobs as “Quants” for large stock market brokers and can earn over 0,000 USD a year.

Rogers City Mayor Beach Hall Testifies Before Michigan Senate Finance Committee

The Michigan Senate Finance committee Thusday, Nov. 4, 2010 took testimony on a package of bills that the League has been pushing for a couple of years. The League’s Summer Minnick, Director of State Affairs for the League, testified along with Shea Charles, City Manager of Howell and Chair of the League’s Municipal Finance committee as well as Beach Hall, Mayor of Rogers City on the importance of these bills. The bills, HBs 5550 – 5554 would, generally speaking, allow local communities the opportunity to refinance existing non-voted debt in order to better handle challenging fiscal times. Many communties have expressed an interest in these bills and the committee hearing is a great step forward in this process. The bills have already passed the House. There was a substitute adopted that made minor changes to the approval process and we now are optimistic that the bills will be passed at the next Senate Finance committee next week. This is one of the League’s lame duck priorities and we are hopeful we can get the legislature to provide some tools for struggling municipalities before the end of this session!

Question by Francesca C: What job including Economics Finance and Management could make me a millionaire in Mayfair?

Hi, This is an odd question, but I absolutely LOVE Mayfair and one day would love to own a huge house there and basically be able to afford one. I am planning on doing Economics Finance and Management at University and i was wondering, what job in that area could make me a millionaire?

I know things aren’t that simple but I’m just really interested in knowing!

Or any job to do with Economics…

Thanks!

Answer by Judy
There are several companies you can look into to gain experience in owning your own company someday – the only way to make millions.
Try to land a job at Fidelity, Merryl Lynch or Charles Schwab – if they still exist.
Get experience. Take some business classes while you are at school as electives if you can.
