I believe finance is based upon the knowledge of accounting, mathematics, economics, statistics, and computer technology. Therefore, I use this kind of view to teach not only undergraduate and master’s students, but also to teach Ph.D. students in finance, accounting, and economics. The goals of training Ph.D. students in finance are to command the capacity and ability to do meaningful research, to learn how to effectively teach undergraduate, master’s, and Ph.D. students, and to learn the knowledge that can make them capable and effective individuals in the finance industry…
