Course Description:
'' Financial resources, together with human and information resources, are one of the three essential forms of resources which governments must have to function. The objective of this specialty is to prepare graduates who are adept in budgeting and managing financial resources. The study of budgeting encompasses methods appropriate to the development and execution of a budget as well as inquiry into the nature of the economic and political environment within which budgets are decided.
Financial management encompasses all aspects of the activities that go into the framing of an integrated financial management system -- the practice of budgeting including budgetary forecasting, revenue administration, treasury and investment management, risk management, payroll and pension management, procurement and contracting, management of entitlements and grants, auditing and, of course, governmental accounting (which, through extensive use of computers, provides the means to record and communicate financial information).
This concentration is especially appropriate for students who seek to start their careers in positions such as budget analyst, performance auditor or contract/purchasing specialist and who may aspire to move from such staff positions into senior management. It is a specialization that substantially enhances the placement prospects of liberal arts graduates.
The Certificate in Public Financial Management is available for students who wish to go beyond the specialization. It is in conformance with recommendations of the American Society for Public Administration’s Section on Budgeting and Financial Management. Students who wish to obtain the certificate should take PAD 5227, 6207, and 6226 as well as three of the approved specialization courses for a total of 18 semester hours of credit. Persons who complete the certificate should meet the education requirements to sit for the national accreditation examination to become a Certified Government Financial Manager (CGFM).
