Bachelor of Finance
Monash University, Melbourne, VIC, Australia
About this program
Monash's Bachelor of Finance is a quantitatively focused degree that goes deep into a single discipline rather than spreading study across general business topics, covering capital investment, mergers and acquisitions, foreign exchange, securities valuation, financial forecasting and derivatives trading in detail. Students learn to critically evaluate financial decisions using the theory and modelling techniques finance professionals actually use, rather than a surface-level introduction to financial concepts within a broader commerce degree. The specialised focus and quantitative rigour suit students who are confident with mathematics and want technical depth from the start of their degree, rather than exploring finance as one option among several business disciplines. Career paths are correspondingly specific and wide-ranging within the finance sector, spanning investment banking, corporate treasury, commodities and derivatives trading, mergers and acquisitions advisory, stockbroking, credit analysis and portfolio management. It's a strong fit for students who've already decided finance is their target industry and want a degree that reflects that focus rather than keeping options broad.
