The Seminar in Financial Literacy is a two-week seminar designed to introduce Hopkins undergraduates to the financial services industry. The goal is to provide an introduction to a variety of topics in finance, with a practical focus on exposing the students to employment options in the industry. The Seminar will consist of two weeks of lectures, delivered by distinguished Hopkins alumni, followed by a three-day trip to New York City during which we will visit various firms in the industry. By the end of the seminar, students should have developed an understanding of the structure and jargon of the financial services industry. Hence, they should be poised to profit from the firm visits and networking receptions that will take place on the trip to NYC.Application/Registration for Experiential Learning courses/trips must be processed at the Career Center, Garland Hall 3rd Floor. Class is 5 days a week, 2 meetings per day: 10am-12pm, and 2-4pm. Week 3 takes place in NYC from Jan 22-25
