The course takes students into the deeper realm of financial accounting including theory and practice designed for use in real case scenarios.  This course uses business cases extensively, designed to replicate actual business decision-making situations.  The class contents were meant to be very practical and useful for real affairs in business corporations.

"I would say studying Finance is quite a challenge to me as the level of demand is rising.  The case study approach methods are also quite fresh to me," said Helio Pereire, a first year student from Italy. "However, I am gaining useful knowledge to apply in the area of business for my future business ventures  believe that it can be used greatly for God’s purpose," continued Pereire.

Students seek to apply skills learned in proper bookkeeping and analyzing financial statements towards identifying company financial health.  In today's highly competitive and evolving business environment, decisions of great significance are expected to be made quicker then ever.  Immersing students within this environment at an earlier stage can familiarize them with reliable analysis of data and information, which are delivered at a rapid pace.
