Foundations of Personal Finance
Being equipped with financial knowledge will give you the confidence to make any personal financial decision in life. In this course, we will apply an interdisciplinary approach to personal financial decision-making consisting of consumer and student debt management, retirement security, taxation, and investment management. Simultaneously, we will examine issues of inequality and structural biases inherent in current financial institutions. By way of a final project, students will have the opportunity to present their potential solutions to advance issues of equity.
