Abstract
The paper discusses the requirements for an individual to major in finance and succeed in this career. The paper outlines three lucrative careers open to finance majors, namely, financial analysts, financial consultants and working in commercial banking. The paper predicts that now is a good time to receive an education in finance, because by the time a student graduates, the current economic woes will likely have abated.
Outline:
Requirements for the Major
Finance Careers
Outlook
From the Paper
"To major in finance and succeed in finance as a career path requires more than a desire to simply 'make money'--it requires a genuine enthusiasm for working with people as well as numbers. Ideally, an employee with high aspirations in the finance industry will have a strong background in accounting combined with a personality that is "outgoing and inquisitive by nature" (Nich 2003). A good finance curriculum should provide a student with financial management tools "to succeed in analyzing and executing the financial aspects of managerial decisions" and the candidate's own charisma must convey to the client how certain decisions will enable the client to meet certain goals, using all of the realistic resources and options available."

From the Paper
"One hot job right now is brand manager. In the typical company, only the executive team and the brand management team have fingers in every pie. The accountants know the numbers. The sales people know what's going on in sales. The research and development types are stuck in the lab. But the brand managers are responsible for the "big picture." They coordinate everybody's efforts from production to advertising, to distribution, to finance. Brand Management staff work mostly in consumer goods companies. The typical staffer starts as a brand assistant."

"For a person to pursue a career in public health, it is imperative that he obtains a college degree. A person may take any undergraduate course. However, it should be supplemented with other courses such as biology and mathematics, depending on what area of public health that person would like to focus on. A person who wishes to have an edge for career advancement in public health should at least obtain a Masters degree. Having a graduate degree will enable a public health professional to further broaden his knowledge on local, national, and global legislative and social policies; he will be able to apply advance research methods; he will be able to develop multidisciplinary and collaborative strategies for tackling health issues, and he will be able to develop leadership skills necessary for health promotion and disease prevention."
