Business and finance is a three-year bachelor's program taught in English at Università Cattolica del Sacro Cuore in Milano, Italy. This field of study combines general business education with a focus on finance, covering how organizations are managed and how financial decisions are made within them. Typical subjects include microeconomics, macroeconomics, financial accounting, corporate finance, marketing, and statistics, alongside more specialized courses in financial markets, investment analysis, and banking. Students in this discipline generally build a foundation in the core functions of business, such as management, marketing, and organizational behavior, while developing a stronger emphasis on financial analysis and decision-making compared to a general business degree. Coursework often addresses topics such as financial statement analysis, valuation, risk management, and the structure and function of financial institutions and markets, providing the analytical tools needed to assess business performance and investment opportunities. Because finance is closely tied to broader business operations, students also study business law, quantitative methods, and strategic management, learning how financial decisions fit within the wider context of running an organization. This combination of general business training and financial specialization is intended to prepare graduates for roles that require both managerial understanding and technical financial skills. Career paths connected to business and finance include roles in corporate finance, banking, financial consulting, investment analysis, and general management, as well as further study at the postgraduate level in finance, business administration, or economics. Milano is a major center of Italian business and finance, offering a relevant setting for this program. Taught in English, this bachelor's degree is designed for an international student body seeking training that combines general business education with a focused study of finance.
