The Trading Floor
Situated at Lakeshore Campus, this working lab allows students to simulate real-life trading of stocks, bonds, funds, and currencies. The trading floor adds an experiential learning element and allows students to experience what it’s like to be a trader and portfolio manager. In addition to a full lab of finance application-enabled computer terminals, a stock ticker display, and screens capturing key market data, the trading floor is equipped with 12 state-of-the-art Bloomberg terminals. Bloomberg is an information and trading platform that finance professionals use for reading financial news, performing market and company analyses, and accessing a tremendous amount of current and historical data. Finance degree students are able to earn a Bloomberg Market Concepts (BMC) certification. The trading floor lab, including Bloomberg, is integrated into a number of our finance degree courses.

The Fashion District Pop-Up Shop
With the launch of the Third Floor Fashion District at the North comes “The Pop-Up Shop”. A competitive venture where students can pitch ideas to book the space, set up shop, and put it to work for a week.

We want our students to dream big and we are giving them the platform they need to test their entrepreneurial skills.
