UTS becomes the first undergraduate CFA Program Partner in Australia

The CFA Institute has partnerships with select universities around the world that have imbedded a significant percentage (70%) of the CFA® Program Candidate Body of Knowledge into their degree programs. UTS is a CFA Program Partner Institution based on the Bachelor of Business with a major in Finance. Recognition as a partner signals that the degree’s curriculum is closely tied to professional practice and is well suited to students preparing to sit for the CFA® examinations.
