About the Course:
In its 4th semester as a decal, “Introduction to Stocks” has been successful in providing thorough introduction to the stock markets and offering students of all majors and education levels an alternative to the conventional finance class. This DeCal course aims to help students develop the ability and knowledge to make decisions with stock investing. The class will utilize PowerPoint, online articles, exercises as well as incorporate a virtual simulation. By the end of the course, students will not only know how to start investing on their own account, but also more importantly, know how to analyze stocks and the market itself.
How to Enroll:
