Private Equity/Venture Capital Association
The private equity and venture capital (PE/VC) emphasis provides students with both a broad understanding and specialized focus of buy-side opportunities. Students who pursue this emphasis develop an understanding of the what, why and how of investing via leveraged buyouts, growth equity, venture capital and corporate development. The PE/VC focus provides students with a foundation of evaluating investment opportunities including: financial evaluation, deal structure, market awareness, industry dynamics, due diligence (legal, management, market, operations, product). Finance graduates who complete the PE/VC emphasis will be well positioned for buy-side opportunities both post-graduation and post investment banking or management consulting.
