Earn Your Degree in Finance

Finance is the science of money management, concerning the investment of assets over time under conditions of risk or uncertainty. Our Finance program is dedicated to setting up graduates for success in finance positions or entry-level business positions. Our goal is that each of our students, upon graduation, possess the educational background necessary for advancement in public, corporate, and governmental organizations.

Students are encouraged to consider studying abroad! In fact, many business students are awarded study abroad scholarships to assist with the expense of attending study abroad programs. Southern Miss Business faculty lead three programs: British Studies, Asian Studies, and Italian Studies.

The College of Business and Economic Development is accredited by the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB).
