About Us

The Finance Club is a student led group seeking to provide all of our peers with a better understanding of the field and the careers within it.

Here in the finance club we know the word "finance" could mean a lot of different things, our job is to help our members figure out what it means to them. We want to make this field more transparent so our members can figure out what they want to do, and where they want to go with finance.

Our History

In 2019, Professors Michael Kender, Elesha Wikle, and Wally Newton were the advisors for the Finance Club. Wally C. Newton played an integral role in guiding the Virginia Tech students in career choices, interview preparation, and launching business careers for over a decade.

 

Newton worked with the Finance Club by organizing events to help students explore finance careers and network with employers and alumni. Following Newton's passing and the global pandemic, in-person networking was limited. This caused the Finance Club to have a complete cease of all operations.

 

In 2022, the club was rebooted with a focus on providing students the tools for successful recruitment and career navigation.
