Welcome to Finance and Economics
Welcome to the Department of Finance and Economics in the College of Business Administration at Nicholls State University. As a unit of the College of Business, we are fully accredited and staffed by a faculty that brings a broad range of specialties to our programs. Our classrooms are equipped with state-of-the-art technology that allows faculty members to bring real world examples into discussions and case studies.
We are not too big to learn your name, and we are not too small to have the resources to provide an outstanding preparation for the career you have in mind.
We oversee two distinctly different Bachelor of Science degrees.
- The Bachelor of Science in Business Administration is designed for students who want to gain more than an introductory level of knowledge in multiple disciplines. Within the Business Administration degree, five concentrations are available.
- The Bachelor of Science in Finance is for students who want to gain extensive knowledge related to the management of wealth.
In addition to the respective specific focus, each curriculum and concentration is designed to develop student communication, technological, critical thinking and ethical decision-making skills.
