The CFA Institute is a global association of investment professionals. Being designated as an Affiliated University signifies that the Huntsman School's Bachelor of Science in Finance curriculum aligns closely with professional practice. Students in the program gain access to the CFA curriculum and educational resources.

To earn this designation, the finance degree curriculum incorporates at least 70% of the CFA Program Body of Knowledge and emphasizes the CFA Institute Code of Ethics and Standards of Practice. Based on the Candidate's recognition, students pursuing the CFA credential are eligible for exam scholarships, covering a significant portion of examination costs.

This recognition would not be possible without the hard work that our dedicated faculty has put into building this program. We continually strive to improve the program and aim for academic excellence and rigor.
