<div><em><strong>shootthemessenger</strong> asked: </em><br/><br/><br/>Hi, i plan to study Bachelor of Finance at Australian National University, however i have to choose to major in either of &#8220;corporate finance and investment management&#8221; or &#8220;quantitative finance&#8221;. From what i udnerstand, corporate finance is more theoritical and has to do with business financing while quantitative finance has to do with math. could someone tell me more about both subjects? what kind of job can you get after studying each of these? </p>
<p>FYI I have a very strong mathematical background but i dont like computer programing. I did very well (not bragging) in all the other subjects in highschool as well. I do have interest in math but i want to study somehting that would help me secure a gd job. what do you suggest?<br/><br/></div>

<div><em><strong>bunnychica1984</strong> asked: </em><br/><br/><br/>I posted this question in business section but not much action over there&#8230;<br />
I&#8217;m thinking about a possible change in careers. Right now, I work a PR firm but now I might be interested in working a brokerage firm.  I&#8217;m about a year away from earning my a bachelors in liberal arts so I obviously don&#8217;t want to start all overs. What courses could I still take and be relevant for the finance field? Any advice is appreciated. Thanks,Caroline<br />
Yes, I&#8217;m currently a junior with about 80 something hours.<br/><br/></div>
