Investment Group Spotlight
CFA INSTITUTE RESEARCH CHALLENGE
The CFA (Chartered Financial Analyst) Institute Research Challenge is a great opportunity for our students to engage in the rigor of conducting investment research, as a group, while competing with students on a global stage. Students are tested on their analytical, valuation, report writing, and presentation skills while gaining real-world experience as they assume the role of a research analyst.

because growing up, I always heard people discuss investing and the market, but never knew what it actually meant. I wanted to learn the fundamentals to strengthen my financial responsibility and money management in a real world application. Providing an environment for students to learn about investing alongside peers and professionals is important to cultivating financial literacy.

because I wanted to be surrounded by individuals who were like minded regarding their future goals. I came to realize that young people who invest are quite well versed in many worldly topics. Additionally, it was a great way to make lasting friendships as a transfer student.
