Degree Programs & Certificates
Finance
There is no better place in the world to study finance than New York City. There is no finance curriculum in New York quite like Fordham’s. Our students can complete a full BS in finance, or make finance the focus of a business administration degree.
Entrepreneurship
The Gabelli School of Business prepares its students to tackle real business problems with an arsenal of knowledge, skills, and experiences. Our entrepreneurship program turns students into change agents and disruptors to seize countless opportunities in front of them. We do this by re-calibrating how students think about money, failure, what a career is, what kind of lifestyle they want, and what kind of impact they want to have in the world.
Accounting
Accounting has been part of the Gabelli School of Business since its founding in 1920. The proud tradition continues today. In an average graduating class, nearly one-fifth of all seniors go on to jobs in the Big Four.
Management
Anyone who holds a job will tell you: Management does not come naturally to most people—including most managers. Good management is a skill and an art. The Gabelli School offers an education not only in management, but also in strong leadership.
Marketing
The field of marketing calls for creative thinkers with diverse interests and backgrounds. It encompasses the application of creativity, economics, psychology, sociology, anthropology, statistics, and analytics to contribute to the growth of the economy and society by identifying patterns in consumer behavior and fulfilling customer needs and desires.
