Applied Portfolio Management

The Chaifetz School鈥檚 Applied Portfolio Management course (FIN 4630) offers upper level finance students the opportunity to directly manage nearly $2.5 million in University Endowment Funds. Students learn to conduct equity research and work as a team of analysts with guidance from industry mentors to practice their skills and successfully build a diversified portfolio as a team of analysts.

Building a Portfolio

At the start of the course, students select stocks to add to a diversified portfolio of university endowment funds. The portfolio holds the selected investments throughout the year until the next class of Applied Portfolio Management students reviews the portfolio and makes a final decision on what to include in the portfolio for another year. Students write and present research reports on four stocks as part of the course鈥檚 final project.
