AIM Class of 2011 Career Placements

According to AIM Director, Dr. David Krause, “We have been true to our mission which I believe has allowed us to achieve an outstanding placement record for our AIM students over the years. I think that the academic rigors of the program - combined with real world experience - give our students an edge in the marketplace when they are competing for internships and career placements.”

Students graduating with a Bachelor of Science in Business Administration degree in finance from Marquette University have successfully competed in the world of finance for the past 100 years. Dr. Krause commented, “The AIM program goes one step beyond a traditional finance major by providing a balance of theory and practical applications which helps to facilitate our students’ transition from the classroom to the workplace. To me, applied education makes a lot of sense for students and prospective employers.”


Career opportunities for students majoring in finance and participating in the AIM program include: security analysis, corporate treasury operations, risk management, credit analysis, consulting, investment banking, mergers and acquisitions, sales and trading, commercial banking, private equity, and financial wealth management. “AIM graduates are working across the United States, and for that matter, around the world.”

"While placements for the AIM Class of 2011 are on track, we are still interested in hearing from prospective employers interested in talking with our students," Dr. Krause stated. “Our AIM alumni are finding success in all areas of finance.” If you have a career opportunity and are interested in viewing the resumes of our students, please contact Dr. Krause at david.krause@marquette.edu.
