BUS 658 - Frontiers of Finance

3 Cr. Hrs.

Finance isn’t a static field, and understanding disruptors like blockchain and cryptocurrency allows you to capitalize on opportunities that are revolutionizing financial operations. Students will describe and evaluate blockchain, analyze cryptocurrencies, and assess decentralized finance (DeFi) platforms. By course end, students will be ready to explore blockchain and crypto career opportunities and lead discussions on these cutting-edge technologies. Although there are no prerequisites for this course, a basic understanding of accounting and economics (e.g. previous undergraduate classes) would be beneficial.
