College Of Charleston Investment Program

The School of Business Investment Program began in January 2013 as the result of a generous donation from CofC parents, Steve and Maureen Kerrigan. The Program, managed within the department of finance, is operationally funded through non-endowed accounts housed in the College of Charleston Foundation. The Program includes both public and private investment activity and provides a distinct opportunity for a select group of students to distinguish themselves academically, professionally, and personally. MISSION STATEMENT To provide career-oriented application of theoretical knowledge learned in the classroom through analytical asset valuation, portfolio management, and group collaboration. OBJECTIVES 1. Develop elite students with career-relevant skills who will hold a competitive advantage in the job market. 2. Increase the visibility and reputation of the School of Business as a distinguished resource for potential students, faculty, and employers. 3. Build relationships between the School of Business and members of the local, regional, and national investment communities.
