Hi, i plan to study Bachelor of Finance at Australian National University, however i have to choose to major in either of "corporate finance and investment management" or "quantitative finance". From what i udnerstand, corporate finance is more theoritical and has to do with business financing while quantitative finance has to do with math. could someone tell me more about both subjects? what kind of job can you get after studying each of these?

FYI I have a very strong mathematical background but i dont like computer programing. I did very well (not bragging) in all the other subjects in highschool as well. I do have interest in math but i want to study somehting that would help me secure a gd job. what do you suggest?

I’m in a bachelor of commerce right now but have yet to choose a specialization; right now it’s between marketing and finance.

I’m just a little scared of finance. Everyone’s told me it’s super hard. I’m taking a statistics class right now and I dislike it; is finance similar to stats? Is it simple math, ie + – x / or does it deal with calculus and/or algebra? What would I actually be doing?

Please help! I’m favouring finance right now because of the better money and job opportunities, and because the investments market interests me, but I don’t want to be miserable for the next 2-3 years of school. I dislike complex math.

I know Finance is a program that is heavy on math but what kind of math are you generally learning? I heard you dont learn algebra, thats for sure. Can anyone help me?

I graduated a few years ago with a double bachelor degree in accounting and business administration and I’ve since been working as an accountant and studying for the CPA exam. Over the past year, I’ve become extremely interested in finance and I’ve decided that I’d like to pursue a Ph.D. in finance so that I can become a college professor. The only problem is that finance Ph.D. programs require a bunch of math prerequisites that I don’t have. It would probably take me a few years to even qualify. Based on my educational and professional experience, someone suggested that I’d be much more qualified for a Ph.D. in accounting. If I go this route and also get a minor in finance, would there be much opportunity for me to research and/or teach finance-related topics such as investment theory, portfolio management, and personal financial planning? Thanks for your help!
