Be 'Salt and Light' in Your Profession

As an economics and finance major, you will be prepared to enter the professions of financial services, banking, insurance, risk management, real estate, and more. Guided by faith, equipped with relevant skills and abilities, and confident in your calling, you will serve as “salt and light” within your chosen profession. The HU faculty is dedicated to helping you develop a Christian foundation for making business decisions so you can become the leader you were meant to be.

“I will always be thankful for Huntington University and the people I have met.  I have learned so much from my professors, peers, and the community of Huntington that I feel confident and well-equipped for whatever comes next in commercial banking at Capital One."
