Hi, i plan to study Bachelor of Finance at Australian National University, however i have to choose to major in either of “corporate finance and investment management” or “quantitative finance”. From what i udnerstand, corporate finance is more theoritical and has to do with business financing while quantitative finance has to do with math. could someone tell me more about both subjects? what kind of job can you get after studying each of these?

FYI I have a very strong mathematical background but i dont like computer programing. I did very well (not bragging) in all the other subjects in highschool as well. I do have interest in math but i want to study somehting that would help me secure a gd job. what do you suggest?

The Chief asked:


I wanted to start studying for my major in college which is finance and I was just wondering exactly what type of math do businessmen use in the field of finance and economics?

James S asked:


I know Finance is a program that is heavy on math but what kind of math are you generally learning? I heard you dont learn algebra, thats for sure. Can anyone help me?
