Money Matters: Financial Management in Higher Education

Catalog description

Offers students an opportunity to develop the practical skills and competencies necessary to build and manage budgets, advocate for and allocate both human/financial resources, and effectively articulate how strategic initiatives translate into budget requests. Linking theory to practice, successful students develop core financial management competencies while also being exposed to how colleges/universities approach critical fiduciary responsibilities. Developing both a conceptual and practical understanding of the financial management strategies employed within today’s changing landscape of higher education is critical to professional success.
