The University Investment Institute: The Student Investment Club

In today’s conversant markets, experiential learning through organized models is of paramount importance for student growth and success in financial services. With unambiguous recognition of this need, the University Investment Institute helped form the Student Investment Club. Students from across campus gain firsthand experience in portfolio management as members of the Investment Club. The University Investment Institute is committed to support the club’s efforts in a number of ways, including organizing special seminars, events, and field trips. Often the corporate sponsors of these events are involved in the evaluation of related student projects.

“The study of finance dose not seem to require any specialized gifts of an unusually high order. Is it not, intellectually regarded, a very easy subject compared with the higher branches of philosophy or pure science? An easy subject, at which very few excel!”

--John Maynard Keynes
